This book put me through all the feels; laughing, crying, fuming, etc.. I’m mad that
it took this long for me to get around to reading it. I’m also angry at how much time passed before I could find a book like this on the shelves. I'm proud that Felix Ever After is now available at multiple bookstores and libraries.
The writing is beautiful and shows the truth of the struggle to love oneself in a real way. At points, it hit me a little too close to home, and I found it difficult to push through the blatant transphobia that Felix had to deal with. None of us should have to experience a hate act like that in our lives, but many of us do. I’m so happy to have Felix Ever After.
