I am not quite sure what was about this book but I am just not the hugest fan of it.  Our MC Noah, is still known by his girl name.  He is interested in Mothman, a cryptic that he and his trans best friend were interested in.    His friend had died and it was all he had left.  So he writes letters to Mothman as he goes to school, falling behind in work and dead set determined to have Mothman in his science project.  

this is prose poetry and I didn't pick up on that since I listened to the book.   I did like the rep this book had.  ASD rep and LGBT rep, with two characters keeping their identity secret.  Grief is also a theme in this text

It is a well book I just didn't care for it.
