The ending is sweet. I like the afternote. It does clarify a few things.

i love all of Amanda's friends. They are all queens.

I'm trying so hard to like this. This book has become boring. As a cis woman, I feel terrible saying this. I feel like I should love this book. It should be life-changing. I'm having a hard time enjoying it at all now.

i don't know anything about Amanda. It seems like her being trans is the only important thing about her. Her personality is sweet, sure, but so, so, so boring.

We are reminded that Amanda is not “normal” just a smidge too much. It’s a bit repetitive.

I just found out the author raped and physically assaulted her spouse. That is not okay. I like this book, so I will finish it, but I will not be reading any of her other books. I refuse to support a rapist.

So far, I like Grant. As for Amanda, I guess I like her. I pity her, though. It sucks that she has to be so careful just because she’s trans.

I have just started this book, and I am loving it. The writing is efficient, and the characters seem okay, although I can’t tell for sure yet. Amanda’s dad is conservative and not very accepting. He seems like an antagonist, but he probably has an interesting backstory.
