However, I do think this could really use an update. There are various points where I found the language used outdated and uncomfortable. Also while focusing on an agender teen, it felt like this book fell into its own binary of man and woman, and other. There was very little space in this book for the gender spectrum.
There were also a few descriptions of people that seemed unnecessary and made me feel kind of uncomfortable.

My only wish is that this had been written by or with someone who could have an own voices perspective. Regardless, this was well done. I’m still torn. I care for both people.
