HEEYYYYYYYY FRIENDS! How's everyone's summer going? I feel like nothing ever slows down, even here in the islands :/
Summer expectation:
Summer reality:
But anyways, here are some on theme for July (books by and about trans people) links I wanted to share. This month we're reading two books by and about trans authors who identify as she/her (but we're pushing the boundaries a bit on our "books by women" theme, since Emezi does not identify as a woman).
Please leave a comment if you have anything related to share! And see you July 21 for book club brunch :)
