Starts slow, but resolves nicely. I kinda like that Felix is not entirely likable. Adds more humanity to his character and makes it more believable. 
I love that the story also includes the very real human anxieties we have about other people and ourselves.

This book was quite an interesting read. I enjoyed the way it tackled identity and the ways that different identities interact and how you can be marginalised in some ways while also being discriminatory to those who are marginalised in different ways to you. I feel like I could recognise some of these characters in the people I knew when I was 17 like them. I enjoyed the exploration into identity, and the way that people with differing opinions on identity can coexist within the same community and how understanding your own identity doesn't always mean you get it right first time.

I loved it. Seriously loved it. Beautiful and captures the trans experience so well. I couldn’t put it down and I seriously flew through it once I was reading. I’m so sad it’s over. I feel like I only read 3 pages and then it was already over

This is a book about finding and learning to love oneself. It was so cute and I found myself internally and sometimes externally screaming. Everything is so interconnected and cool. The plot had a lot of different points which sometimes felt like too much but it was still fabulous.
