Funny. Even though I'm also a demiboy (I think, though I don't really use that term) I wasn't able to relate to Felix that much, and the dialogue felt a little rant-like at some points. (Like, some moments felt like the character was speaking more towards a reader who doesn't know a lot about lgbt discourse than to the other  characters involved in the scene. But maybe I'm just speaking from my been-in-the-online-lgbt-community-since-the-womb high horse. I get that some people need to be informed.) With that said, it did inspire me a bit, and it hooked me to the point that I stayed up till 1:30 a.m reading, and finished it all in two days, so I guess that counts for something. I also loved how compassionate and empathetic the book is, to literally all of its characters. It's something that I think people need to see more of.
