I received an advanced copy of this book for review and let me say that it was so good. This is the kind of book I think everyone should read (if the content won't trigger them) because it allows for better understanding of being a kid not comfortable with being in the body they were born in. Obie was a great kid and I am so glad that he was able to do what he needed to do. There were definitely things that I wish were handled or executed differently, in general and in resolution, but this book was still a great one.
