This charming middle grade book is about Ana figuring out that they’re nonbinary and having to come out amidst their intense figure skating training and community. Without spoilers, i can say it’s pretty free of homophobia, transphobia and anti-queer bias and bigotry, which made it pretty damn enjoyable. Middle school angst notwithstanding. Will recommend to my b’nai mitzvot aged nibbling for sure!
