I really enjoyed this book! It has incredible representation. Loved another story with a trans MC. Loved a secondary character who is non-binary and trying to figure out the best pronouns and loved seeing ey/em/eir pronouns being used and normalized! Asexual representation! And lots of great anxiety representation. I also really appreciated the other character’s responses to changing of pronouns, asexuality, and anxiety. A great model of how others should react in those situations. :) 

The MC is 16 and is a little immature at times, but he has these lots of shining moments and does a lot of growing throughout the book. 

Even though I knew exactly where this plot was going, I still absolutely adored this book. I loved the representation and the arc and it was a great read of trans joy!! Looking forward to more books to come from the author!

The representation in this book is amazing! Worth the read just for that. I loved having a whole crew of LGBTQIA+ characters. Overall this was a great quick read! I wish there was a little more dimension to the antagonists, but I still really enjoyed it.
