Having said that it’s a low rating because of the author alone. I didn’t know it when I picked up the book but after reading reviews and the links to articles I don’t feel comfortable supporting the author. Call it cancel culture all you want but abuse is abuse at the end of the day and I don’t feel comfortable separating the author from her work.

I really liked the book. It was so emotional and nearly had me in tears. I’m so glad it had a happy ending because if it didn’t I wouldn’t have coped. The transphobia and the homophobia was a lot but it was probably the right amount for a small town unfortunately. I would definitely not recommend reading it if that would affect you.
I liked how it skipped years. It meant that the story could progress and we could see the progression of Morgan’s mom’s letters/DVDs. We could also see them growing up and it didn’t take forever.

Additionally I found it really interesting seeing into Morgan’s mind throughout her struggles to accept and love her true self and her journey of self discovery.
Loved this and recommend it!
