#TransRightsReadathon late to the readathon & late to getting to this title that‘s been on my TBR for a long time. Might get to some trans nonfiction, my reading time hasn‘t been as much as I would like it to be lately.

My first book for the #TransRightsReadathon is one I found in an article interviewing Torrey Peters on her recommended Trans books. It wasn't on my radar before.
The trans rights annual readathon is almost here!
March 21-31
I will be reading:
Disappoint Me by Nicola Dinan
Little Rot by Akwaeke Emezi
Confessions of the Fox by Jordy Rosenberg
This novel took me several months to finish and I'm sure the library will be so happy to have their copy back. It was absolutely brilliant, this may be one of the few books that make it back into the rotation. The depiction of queer characters was refreshing and familiar, and reading this book feels like returning to a community of friends.
While by no means a comprehensive history, Stryker‘s book is a good place to start.
I chose this because I was skeptical of my own feelings about transgender issues.
To be clear, I was never skeptical of their rights; I believe everyone has a right to live how they want & I am also of the view that one doesn‘t belong at the table if one doesn‘t know anything about what‘s on it.
So now I know a little & I understand better & that‘s good.
A novel reflecting on teenage years of two adults who grew up in NYC. Sometimes funny and other times sad, the kids while attending a Quaker School are trying to decide who they are sexually. The imagination runs a bit wild. No matter where you identify yourself sexually, or where you grew up, this novel had me recalling my memories during my teenage years. I gave this a solid 4.5/5⭐️
This said,” pick me “ ,at a local bookshop. Thought it might be good for my grandson but also thought I would read it first. I‘m not a graphic novel fan but this was an easy read. For anyone grappling with gender issues or wishing to understand these things , a easy and interesting read. I will be giving it to my grandson.
