I really like it at first, but after a while it got boring to hear the main character complain so much.

This is probably the best book I’ve read in 2023 so far. The diversity is *chef’s kiss*. Ben’s character made me feel so seen. Their struggles with identity are similar to my own struggles and I really appreciate the dive into the difference between sexuality and gender-identity. I knew from the first 50 pages this book was going to be inspiring and emotional. I was right. This book had me crying and I felt “seen” by the book.
