David Levithan's books always leave me thinking, and I enjoy that even if I don't always love or agree with the characters choices. They do feel like complete character choices though, not the author's.

There were problematic parts especially on behalf of Rhiannon with her fat-phobic comments, refusal to use the correct pronouns for the trans person and what felt like a refusal to understand A's own queerness...

The storyline was still brilliant though, and I think Rhiannon's character added depth and realness to the story in its own way, but I wish the author would've made it more blatantly written in the wrong with A disagreeing or correcting her more openly...

I did like the ending (with exception of Rhiannon's part in it), and I enjoyed that there were multiple twists along the way.

Wasn't a huge fan of Rhiannon, so it made me really frustrated when

A kept wrecking people's lives/relationships for her.

Overall though, I loved the concept of the body switching and wish it would be explored further!

Because of the nature of the body switching, it covers a lot of different life scenarios, which includes a lot of possibly triggering situations.
