Well this was different. I thought I was going to be reading a little bit outside of my comfort zone, but no. This was a completely new zone.
Having said that, I actually liked this book a lot. Although it is a transgender lovestory about BDSM and other kinks, it was mostly sweet. So very sweet.
I can hardly believe this is Penny Aimes' debut, this novel was perfect in any way. It was informative, without there being any lecture, it explained a lot for people like me, who want to understand what life is like when you are a trans woman, but I'm pretty sure trans women will be equally, if not more, delighted with this story.
