I’m so happy that these books exist for today’s young adults. This book was such a thoughtful and deep exploration of so many things that teenagers struggle with, from gender identity to sexuality to consent to racism to social media fame. I really enjoyed the narrator’s voice and their reflections on all of these topics, and I know that this will help so many people out there with reflecting on their own identity.
