Emily St. James' Woodworking
This is a funny/bittersweet/touching novel about a teacher in South Dakota coming to terms with being trans, but the only trans person she knows in real life is one of her students (who is also a POV character). I loved both women and their relationship, really stellar writing for both of them. I had some mixed feelings about the plot in the second half, but ended up really liking how it wrapped up. A-.

I have a lot of discombobulated thoughts about this one. The writing was good, though!
Yeah, I'm excited to see what she'll do with her next novel!
