''Dinan''s gift as a writer is her ability to make us feel - when her characters cry, we cry; when they laugh, we laugh; and everybody is changed by the end of this novel, including the reader. A beautiful love story and an exceptional debut. '' Irish Times It begins as your typical boy meets boy. While out with friends, Tom buys Ming a drink. Confident and witty, Ming is the perfect antidote to Tom''s awkward energy, and their connection is instant. But, shortly after they move to London to start their next chapter, Ming announces her intention to transition. Tom and Ming face shifts in their relationship in the wake of Ming''s transition, and are forced to confront the vastly different shapes their lives have taken since graduating. Each must answer the essential question: is it worth losing a part of yourself to become who you are?
