It was a good book, but I’m so sick of reading about internalised transphobia, hate crimes and all this negativity connected to being queer. I know it has a “happy ending” but it still was horrible to read it. Why do our community always have to suffer so much in books? I thought it would be a wholesome love story. But instead it made me hate the world a bit more…
