but some of the side plots were a wee bit off to me, ben’s relationship with nathan felt quite unrealistic to me, and after getting used to ben’s personality, then them randomly bringing out the jokes after not wanted to even talk to anyone felt a little ehhhhh? you know, it felt like it wasn’t them
i did love the representation in this book very much, and i feel like its a very good book for non-binary or trans youth to read, but if representation isn’t what you came for, i feel you won’t like this book

This is such an important book for the LGBTQ+ Youth. It's heartbreaking but so hopeful at the same time. It was really well written and the main character were so relatable.
Note that few passages were really hard to read but reflect a (sad) reality.
I wish all the best. 💜
