Some fantastic rep in this book! I do think that the pacing was a bit clunky, as this kinda of felt like four books in one, I wish it was just one or two perspectives.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 21%.

partially pick this up because of the title, stopping now because a medical character driven narrative is just is not working for me

4.0

I didn't know anything about Harris Reed before picking this up, as I assumed this was more of a general overview of gender neutral fashion. I did however enjoy hearing his thought process and path forward to where he is now. Pictures were gorgeous too! Just not what I thought the book was going to be.

Written very well but then it just... ended? This felt like part one in a two part memoir.
