Unsurprisingly, this book made me cry. Aiden is struggling with figuring out his identity when all around him he keeps hearing subtle and not-so-subtle messages that being gay is wrong/bad/sinful and also dealing with bullying and insecurities around his body. I love the hope at the end of the story.

Such a beautiful and powerful graphic novel that realistically captures the turmoil a teenager, whether they are gay or straight, trying to figure themselves out in this ever-changing world. The illustrations, also done so beautifully and very captivating, really highlights the emotion and the importance of this amazing story.
