Interesting fantasy YA book about what happens when monsters and angels exist, but everyone tries to pretend they don’t. It takes a transgender girl who doesn’t often speak to expose the truth. Abuse happens and must be realized and brought out of the darkness. Great book and theme for younger readers. I zoned in and out with this one a bit because I’m not big on fantasy. But I know my students would love it!
