A beautiful book

5 stars

If you’ve had questions about your gender, or questions about what it’s like to be transgender or non-binary, please read this book.

Obviously every trans person experiences the world differently, but Kobabe’s frank and thoughtful exploration of eir’s own gender was profoundly moving.

I can’t fully address the bigots who wish to ban this book, and I believe there are far more cogent responses than what I could compose. But this book is beautiful and profound, not disgusting or immoral.

This is a book dedicated to helping people find safety and comfort in their bodies and their identities. I hope enough people read this to cancel out the bigotry.
