For those who feel dead inside and don't understand why: Read this book before you buy $400 of heroin, steal your ex's car, and drive across the country hoping to figure out why you feel so empty. Hint: you're probably transgender and dealing with the trauma of repressing it for so long.

This is the second book I’ve read where the main character is trans. I like that you get to read about the experience of two characters  that are “post” and “pre” transition and it’s honestly given me a lot more context to what a trans experience is actually like . Really enjoyed this book and the afterword from the author.
