Get ready to tear up. As a queer person who is and has been in a relationship with afab and amab trans* people/nonbinary folks, this book hit me hard without having had to experience the struggle with gender and dysphoria on my own skin. I understood and lived through the pain of violence and hate crime, because that I understand. 
The History that accompanies the story is simply beautiful. I loved this book.
