This is a lighthearted exploration of what a lot of queer kids have and will go through in the future. Leaving your old life behind to find where you truly belong. To discover yourself, to understand true acceptance amongst a community, and exploring bit by bit who you want to become by the ending chapter in your life's story. Stamper has written something that looks to encourage and affirm young queer people that you weren't able to control the family and life you were born into, but you can definitely choose the life you want to live and the family you want to love. Another great addition to the YA queer modern canon.
