Just wanted to give you a heads-up about a cool work of trans fiction with lots of stuff from a partner’s perspective. It’s the best queer young adult read I’ve seen since Julie Peters’ Keeping You A Secret.

Anyway, it’s Rachel Gold’s Being Emily.

I haven’t read it yet personally, but I thought I’d pass the good word on. My thanks to Natasha for the tip.
