A very informative book. I appreciate the authors candour and intention behind this book. I think it's quite inspiring. My main critique would be that the last 60 pages felt rushed. Especially the last chapter. I would have liked a more slower ending.

Spoiler
I know this is not going to be a popular opinion, but I did not love this book. And I have many friends who are LGBTQIA+.It is possible it is because I listened to it. I found Felix to be whiny and annoying.
I didn't like what Austin did to him with the gallery. But I hated that he let Lucky's conversation with Declan drone on even when he knew he wasn't going to do anything about it.
And it was annoyingly obvious that he loved Ezra. Painfully so. Maybe he had to learn more about himself before he could move forward with that.
I don't think it is because I am not into teenage drama because I am reading Speak and the teenage stuff doesn't bug me in that book.
I am glad that Felix and his Dad got to a deeper understanding. And i am glad that he got back into his art.
But overall, I found the book to be irriating.
