Great first 3/4, interesting characters and setting. Well written, great use of an omniscient narrator alongside a youthful main character's voice. Thoughtful portrayal of coming into complex gender and sexual identities. Lost steam towards the end and sort of meandered to the conclusion. All and all would recommend!
Graphic: Sexual assault
Moderate: Transphobia, Murder, and Homophobia
