En vragen over haar moeder zal ze handig omzeilen.
'Hoi. Mijn naam is Loïs Blijleven. Ik ben vijftien jaar en ik woon op een boot. Dus dat ben ik. En nu wil ik wel weten wie jullie zijn.'Na de zoveelste verandering van school besluit Loïs het anders aan te pakken. Ze wil niet langer klasvulling zijn, die iedereen alweer vergeten is zodra ze van ligplaats veranderen. Ze zal laten zien wie ze is, met een eigenzinnige kledingstijl en zelfbewust gedrag. En vragen over haar moeder zal ze handig omzeilen.
Haar nieuwe rol gaat haar verbazend goed af. Het duurt maar even of twee jongens strijden om haar aandacht. Maar de een heeft daar heel andere redenen voor dan de ander ...
Een van hen weet door Loïs' onverschillige buitenkant heen te prikken. Langzamerhand beseft ze dat ze een keuze moet maken: wil ze de rest van haar leven het verleden achter zich aan blijven slepen of heeft ze de moed het nog éénmaal in de ogen te kijken?

Partly still thought-provoking, partly dated
Format: Paperback
Dr. Wittig had so much anger, and had such a fight to fight. She seems excessive at times, or as though she is painting with such a broad brush, but writing such as this did win some important battles. No, things are not as dark as her wrath would suggest, or at least not anymore.

You will laugh and cry
Format: Kindle
Luckily, I stumbled into a link to this book on Transfeminine Review. One warning: take your eye makeup off before reading. You will laugh till you cry and that is not a good look with mascara.
The plot resembles the movie American Fiction. Pearl is an aspiring trans woman writer. Her first novel has sunk without a trace so now she is going to try something more commercial: a gay male romance with James Bond action marketed to straight women who love that kind of thing. She's even adopting a pen name as Paul Sisters, s gay man.
For a time it works. She has a publisher, Muzzle And Escutcheon is selling well and "Paul" has a fan following. Still, it's getting harder and harder to maintain her fake identity and she's having to make ever more compromises with her own identity and relationships.
One other caution. Pearl does have to deal with casual transphobia. One sequence of her doing an online chat as Paul with transphobic fans and trying not to let it get to her I foundto be particularly triggering
Good, funny, recommended

Brilliantly written
Format: Kindle
I read this in a single sitting, mesmerized. I cared about the protagonist even as she made increasingly bad and soul damaging decisions. I love love love her girlfriend and her roommate is also fun. One could argue that the humorous elements convey the dangers of being a trans woman in both publishing and life especially well. I also enjoyed the publishing scene aspects like in Yellowface. A great read. I’m now a fan!
