A great, short, helpful, accessible, and informative read. I read the ebook along with the audiobook, which was read by the author.

3.5

A little too fast-paced for me, and the writing style (particularly the constant cutting up of sentences) distracted me a lot. 

A good introduction though, and as someone nonbinary, the section about normal vs normativity was still thought-provoking.

indrabindra's review against another edition

fast-paced

3.0

very short!
I was hoping for more depth. at the same time, I don't think this was very accessible. terms and histories not well defined. ideal audience would be those who are new to but trying to learn about and support sexual and gender diversity. overall rushed but well concluded.
