Fantastic read about living as a transgender and genderqueer person. Chella's experience living in conservative Pennsylvania is very relatable to mine as someone who grew up in PA and I just loved reading his story. I personally related so much to the parts about his life pre-transition and before discovering his trans identity. The lines about conforming to feminity when you don't have the words and are being dismissed are so real. I really resonated with Chella's story a lot especially in the parts about their childhood, their relationship with clothes and depression. Highly recommend to read this book about intersectionality.
