I really enjoyed this book because I saw myself in Silence since their struggles were ones I could relate to, being a trans man myself. However, I really didn’t like the narrator’s choice of ending. Maybe it was supposed to feel disappointing since the narrator is some man who wouldn’t understand. But it left a bad taste in my mouth which is why I can’t give it a higher rating. 

4.25/5
