It’s the start of another month, which means a brand-new Book Club Monthly Read! For September I’ve chosen the incredible Bad Habit by Alana S Portero. A vivid portrait of a young Trans girl growing up in 1980s Madrid, this book had me hooked from the first page. At its heart, it’s a beautiful story of someone coming to terms with who they are in an environment that doesn’t allow them to truly flourish. It’s about searching for – and finding in unexpected places – the people who help you grow. It’s a study on identity, love and acceptance, at a time of Spain’s own coming of age after decades of Franco’s dictatorship. Savour every word.
