The Appendix: Transmasculine Joy in a Transphobic Culture by Liam Konemann

Go to review page

emotional informative reflective medium-paced

3.5

this book focuses much more on the issues trans people face rather than how to find joy in being trans. sort of clickbaity. if you're in the mood for something uplifting, this is not it. it's good writing, but it has maybe three pages total about actual transmasculine joy.

super heavy. i love the writing, but its a lot to read and its just eating disorder narrative essay after eating disorder narrative essay. if you struggle with an e/d, youll probably feel both very found and very triggered at the same time.
