Paper Doll

This is a wild, raw and hilarious memoir that charts Dylan's first year of transitioning - which was extensively documented through her viral TikTok series 'Days of Girlhood' - and the chaos that ensued. Written in true and authentic Dylan style in a combination of journal-style entries and essays, the book tackles mental health struggles, feminism, religion, internet trolls and more. It's 100% honest and 100% Dylan. 'The thing that my videos lack is backstory. Granular moments or revelations that deserve to be enjoyed in a more personal way. As a trans human sharing my vulnerabilities, I have to be very sure that I am ready to disclose sensitive topics. My videos have free range for anyone, including the haters, to enjoy. This book would be a safety blanket to invite my true allies under, to share the personal and scary truth of my life as a trans influencer with the right crowd.'
