*Re-read - 2022*
This is still such an important book, and truly heart wrenching the whole way through.
I must say there are a few things like views and opinions that may be considered a little out-dated for 2022 when it comes to gender identity, but for the most part everything holds up and still has such important messages at heart.
A wonder of a book.
*First read - 2017*
This book is so god damned important.
I wholeheartedly believe that EVERYONE in the whole world should read it.
This is the first time I've found myself unable to write a review for a book I've read, but truthfully, I'm completely lost for words.
Wow...
