So I know I'm about 800,000 years late on this book- I've been busy okay? But oh my god everyone I know needs to get up and read this--seriously. The book is kind of brutal, in a good way--at some point, after I had thrown it down for the 8th time to cry, I went "this is really a book about the ways that parents bully their children about gender and don't realize it at all." As a non-binary trans person, the way that people around Melissa insist things about her gender was very, very painful, but the end was so satisfying and wonderful. Bless this book--I'm so, so grateful it exists, and I want every person I know to read it.
