“Casey Plett’s A Safe Girl To Love (Topside Press) is a book of stories about friendship, parenthood, celebrating and fearing your identity, and the rough road to finding community.
“I love Plett’s book for the brave sweep of relationships—a parent/child bond between two trans women; a friendship that begins in a bookstore, includes a trip to a trans woman’s conservative religious home community, and ends, as many friendships do, with an email; and a new, breathless relationship between two young women.
“Read this book!!”
