I'm really not sure about this book and think I need further time to process it. The first half of the book was solely based on Maria's story and then the second half we are introduced to James' character who Marie then sets out to try and help by embarking on a road trip. Whilst this book at the heart was based on what it felt like to be a trans women in today's society I felt like I wanted more story to it. I get the abrupt ending as it felt as though James was still not ready to come to turns with who he really is. It felt like a lot of the story was based around drugs and sex which  detracted from the main conversation of the book.
