Beautiful Music for Ugly Children by Kirstin Cronn-Mills

4.0

As far as I can tell, Gabe is a really well written trans character, though I'm not the best judge of that. But honestly, pretty much any and all fairly well written trans characters are important, and there really isn't enough. A better awareness and understanding of trans people would lead to less violence and discrimination like what Gabe experiences, and younger transgender people would probably really benefit from positive representation and seeing characters who are like them in a positive light.

Parts of the plot were a little predictable to me, but overall it was a good story, funny and with likable characters.
