This book and its sequel center friendship and family so well-they make for pretty emotional reads. This one veers a touch toward after-school-special territory, but not in a bad way. I think for some teens the conversation around gender and sexuality will be really basic, but for the right reader it could be a gentle introduction to new concepts. A quick but lovely read.
