I loved this book. I learned a lot and was immersed pretty quickly. Super well-written.
I wish everyone would read this as each person would get something different out of it.

I think it’s a moving, funny, and timely story about a closeted trans teacher and an outspoken trans teen navigating life in small-town South Dakota. Emily St. James writes with heart and wit, capturing identity, fear, and unexpected connection. Smart, emotional, and quietly powerful.
