So I read "Going Bovine" by Libba Bray a month ago and I must say, it was an awesome story! There was also a transexual or cross-dresser character in the story (even though they only had a minor role, the role was very powerful).
If anyone is looking for a fun, funny, adventure type of a book, I definitely recommend this book.
Has anyone else read it?

I just finished it earlier today. I did read it fast -- I got caught up in it. But, I don't really remember any trans or CD characters in the story, as I don't think what was done to the gnome counts as CD-ing.

Haha no, no. The whole trans character had nothing to do with the gnome. I am not sure if she was a crossdresser or MTF but Miss Demeanor was her name.

*smacks forehead*
Of course; the drag queen. Like I said, I was so caught up in the book that I read it so fast that I missed some details. I just thought of her as a person, and missed the details of her personage.

Yes, I did enjoy the book. While reading it, there seemed to be plot holes. But, I felt that those holes were explained by the way it ended.

Yup, that's what I was feeling too. It made me go back and read some of the chapters while I progress in the book.

I did my share of flipping back and forth, too.
