I have enjoyed listening to Amanda's story of acceptance and love. Listening to this has given me more information about being trans.

An important story about accepting trans people

The story is a classic teen drama. Highs, lows and complex relationships. I am in my 30s and enjoyed it a lot. it was a gripping story line that was easy to follow and I looked forward to listening every day. the narrator read very well and helped set the scene. The issues covered were done in a normal way without over dramatising and raised interesting points and informed me as cis gendered person.

Easy to listen to, emotional and informative

I was gripped by Amanda's story from beginning to end. It was heart rending at times reading of her journey to be the person she'd always felt she was inside, and it provoked feelings of anger towards those who judged her so harshly. As a Christian I found the church part of the story interesting and I liked Anna.

I didn't realise the author was trans until the end of the book. Thank you for writing it. I hope it makes people think and understand better how hard it must be to embark on a journey to transition to the gender a person feels they have always been.

Brilliant and eye opening book
