5.0 out of 5 stars A great read!, June 8, 2004

This review is from: Morgan in the Mirror (Paperback)

Though I haven't read much of the book as of yet I have been thoroughly enjoying the story. What I like most, beside the story line so far, is how well C.C. developed the character of Morgan. I have only scratched the surface of the story and already the character of Morgan has come alive for me and I have been able to empathize and connect with the character.

From my experiences and outlooks as a young FtM, I think `Morgan in the Mirror' is very well written and does bring to light some of the things and feelings young FtM's do in fact have to deal with. The coolest thing is that C.C. was able to write this purely from research. I don't know many writers who could have pulled off such a story in a truthful way. As with any story one character does not hold the standard for all that are in a community just as one person in real life cannot be the standard, but Morgan IS a believable character as a young FtM person.

I don't believe there is anything that I can really say about the book on a negative note. The Australian slang is in my opinion fun and brings, the area the story takes place in, to life. I can see though where some people may have trouble with it because if you don't have a little knowledge of the slang a person may get lost. For the most part I think it gives it more character. ^_^

`Morgan in the Mirror' is definitely a book I would highly suggest if a person wants a good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Boy, September 24, 2004

This review is from: Morgan in the Mirror (Paperback)

One of the many things that make this book a worthwile read is that Saint-clair's created an ftm character that comes across as a a real boy. Not a butch dyke. She's made it clear, even in the love scenes that Morgan is a young man in 'the wrong body'.

5.0 out of 5 stars A towering Achievement, May 3, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Morgan in the Mirror (Paperback)

"A remarkable accomplishment. C.C. Saint-Clair writes
in a way that is both sensitive and thought-provoking.
Morgan commands our sympathy yet never our pity, and
his complex issues are not shied away from. This book
deserves to be read by a very wide audience indeed."
