This text was incredibly informative! Despite it being dense in writing, I devoured it and found that I jelled well with the writing style.

Despite being an emotionally difficult book to read, I found it very important to educate myself with it and Shin Faye discusses being transgender within a variety of contexts. 

I would highly recommend, especially to those who would like to learn more about the issues of transgender people. The style is relatively accessible to all and Shon Faye writes in a way that educates whilst also being engaging.
