oh my god, this was amazing. one of the most beautiful things i have ever read. so subtle and tender and the perfect, PERFECT exploration of queerness in youth. the whole "what if" page said so much without saying anything at all!! and the jump rope game! wow wow wow. want to read this again and again and again. "if you were on the other side, would you swim across?" <3

Beautiful book and translation. Not for young readers, but middle school and older should be fine. tiny swears
