2011 LGBT Rainbow Awards Finalist:
Best Debut Transgender Novel,
Best Bisexual/Transgender Novel,
Honorable Mention, Best LGBT Coming of Age/Young Adult Novel.
"Refuse is a stunning debut “novoir” about an over-observant young outsider with really great hair who is outside everything – including the transgender community – but keeps a great deal bottled up inside. Funny, cynical, tough, vulnerable, honest, deluded, sagacious, self-loving and self-loathing, 'Refuse' is irresistible."
-Mark Simpson, author of 'Saint Morrissey'
