Why read it?
1 author picked Stone Fruit as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

As a queer parent I really connected with how the relationship between the characters is about what we gift each other between generations or among peers, transcending the traditional family structures.
From Joris' list on authentic transgender characters.
