4.0
- middle grade contemporary featuring a korean american trans boy MC! there is a light romance with a cis latina girl
- i guess i’m not sure how to talk about mg books? i’m so used to adult romance lol
- i really enjoyed this — scarfed it down in a day
- obie deals with a whole lot throughout this book, so it was hard to read in some places, but the support he has was also beautiful to see!
- recommended for anyone who needs to read about an example of trans experience — the author shows us clearly how to support a trans boy
