Beyond Magenta: Transgender Teens Speak Out, by Susan Kuklin

I wanted to like this, but I can't recommend it. Granted, it's almost a decade old, and the discourse has evolved since then. But the author leaves gender essentialism and some stories that verge on abuse unaddressed. It's great that these teenagers' stories are told verbatim, but it's not great to miss out on the nuanced commentary that they demand. I love the idea and I hope someone executes it better than this.
