This book was stunning. Everything about it. It is so real.
The complexities of being a teen. The complexities of being black and queer.
Might be one of my favorite reads. I really related to some of Felix’s struggles. They really hit home. I haven’t cried reading a book in a while.
Felix is a really strong and forgiving person. I could never.
Honestly wish this book was polyamorous lol.

Throughout the book even though Felix is publicly outed and deadnamed, his birth name is never explicitly said in the text, and so he is never deadnamed to the reader. He is also misgendered and there are transphobic comments but I don't remember ever seeing him get actively misgendered in on the page dialogue (but I could be wrong on that one). Some underage drinking/drug use.chelle22's review against another edition
