This was amazing! But also WHAT DO YOU MEAN "TO BE CONTINUED"?!?! 

Uh! I hate it when this happens! But also, omg, this book spoke to me on such a personal level.

Aiden Thomas is my new auto-buy author who always nails the trans joys and sorrows. His books have given me hope and made me feel seen in so many ways<3


FAVORITE QUOTES:
"Why was it that just because his body was different from everyone else's, they thought they could ask whatever inappropriate questions they wanted?"

"Was being a Hero all it was cracked up to be? Was it worth being lonely and not having a life of his own? To be famous and beloved but at a distance?"

"I'm so proud of you."
Teo let out a bitter laugh. "Why? I haven't done a single thing for you to be proud of
...
"Why?" "Teo, you have become so completely yourself, I am in awe of the young man before me."

(I'm crying)
