This is a quick read, but it definitely packs an emotional punch. Alex is struggling with gender identity, trying to figure out where he fits. Borinsky really captures that aspect of the story well, as you can feel Alex's emotions leap off the page. Figuring yourself out as a teenager isn't easy, and it can be even harder if you don't have the words to describe how you feel.
Graphic: Transphobia and Homophobia
Moderate: Cursing
