 Ana on the Edge by AJ Sass is a novel about an ice skater who is figuring out their gender, all while dealing with friendship, family, and general life changes. I really loved this story. I was not familiar with ice skating going in, but understood aspects of performance and practice, being a former band kid. It was interesting to see their process and how gender manifests itself on those details. There was quite a lot in this story without being too intense. Ana has to deal with her own feelings while also learning important lessons about communication. There was some important conflict resolution with friends and family alike.
