Status Updates From Ponyboy

This reminds me of much of my many adventures and misadventures of my late teens and early twenties. I’m glad I never descended into drugs and alcohol like the character in this book and like so many people I once knew.

I have also been wanting to read this for over a year since the main character is trans masc and so is the author. Which is so refreshing because I’m sick to death of trans male characters written by cis men. I haven’t actually read any and I really don’t want to especially from what I have heard.

I’ve found a few other books similar to ponyboy, I hope they are like this.

I’ve been cleaning my house from top to bottom and tomorrow I will be do nothing, but lounging in my pjs reading this and boot packing/leathercare.

I’m only 8 pages in and I’m hit with such a huge sense of familiarity. I have a really difficult relationship with who and what I was like pre medical transition. So many emotions, too many to describe here.

so like its been a while admittedly…
