5.0

This is probably the most diverse middle grade book I've ever read! Each short story focuses on a kid with a different identity and experience. There's nonbinary, neopronouns, gay, lesbian, bi, trans, squishes (first time ever seeing that representation in a book!) and more!

I wrote a much longer review detailing the content warnings and representations of each story, but Goodreads didn't save my draft and I had to return it to the library. Grrr! Check out other reviews for those.

5/5 stars. I adore this and wish I had this when I was a kid :)
