If I Was Your Girl
by
Edit and Update (a serious note)
In any other situation, I would be shouting this book from the rooftops because it is, quite frankly, life changing.
In short - it's the story of a young MTF teenager living in the south and trying to find new beginnings. This story is powerful. It is incredible.
However, after becoming aware of serious spousal abuse allegations against the author, it's honestly hard for me to write a full review for this book, knowing that people could read this review and buy a book to support the author.
I've read up a bit about separating the art from the artist...but I cannot in good conscious do that given the seriousness of the allegations.
If you do want to read it despite the what we now know - pick it up second hand or from the library.

What does spousal allegations mean?
Glyn Ashworth-Cobban Reads (HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!) wrote: "What does spousal allegations mean?"Her spouse (wife) is saying she was abused (the allegations). From what I read online, there's a lot of evidence to support it. To the point where I don't feel comfortable giving this book my full support
