I absolutely adore this story. Full disclosure, I read the chapters of this book on the AO3 version, not my physical copy, but to my knowledge they're the same. 

I continue to be enraptured by this series. It continues to be the best trans story I've read to date.

I do think that compared to the first book, the story feels a bit less focused, but that's because the story moves to more of an ensemble piece, and by the end of the book (and certainly by the chapters that have come out since), I adjusted to it and am now onto it. 

I'd still recommend this story for any trans person, and I'm still very curious what a cis person would think of it.
