J’ai retiré 0,25 pour les quelques répétitions qui n’ont en rien changé le fait que ce livre va rester avec moi très longtemps.
Ce livre m’a fait ressentir des émotions similaires à, voire plus intenses que, I Wish All the Best. Je recommande donc aux personnes qui ont aimé I Wish You All the Best de lire Felix Ever After et aux personnes qui ont aimé Felix Ever After de lire I Wish You All The Best.

Flawed messy characters
Trans/
Discussions of privilege and classism
Abandonment
Transphobia
Tropes:
Love triangle
Personally not a fan of the underage drinking
The audiobook narrator worked well for Felix. But the audiobook version I listened to still had Harry Potter references which could be triggering.

"It's easier to accept hurt and pain, sometimes, than love and acceptance."
I've been meaning to read Felix Ever After for quite some time now... When I needed a banned book for the POPSUGAR challenge, I decided to give in and finally read it. I know that I don't read a lot of YA anymore, but I would recommend this book for both teenagers and adults alike. The topic is such an important one, and it's an own voices story at that; there is no doubt that Felix Ever After has a big impact, and it really is an eye-opener. That said, I do have to say that there were certain aspects about the main character Felix that I didn't like as much. I get his struggles and they are both portrayed realistically and basically heartbreaking. BUT. He is also pretty selfish and vindictive, and the fact that others are hurting him is no excuse to do the same. I can't say that I was a fan of the whole love triangle vibe either, which kind of put a damper on things for me... In fact, I wasn't really a fan of the romance nor how it was developed and incorporated in general. I'm still giving this story four stars though just for its impact and how it can help people discover their identity and tribe.
