This book completely blew me away. I mean REALLY blew me away. I had no idea I needed this queer YA book until I read it, and now I am a firm believer that every single person needs to read this book.
Here are some things I learned from this remarkable story:
* Not all bodies are the same
* Not all Queer people are the same
* I have white privilege, and I need to accept that and rectify the best way I can
* All stories are different
* All stories are important
* Everyone deserves to have their story told
I really do honestly feel that this book is an important read, not just for young people, but for all people. I learned so very much from it, but I also enjoyed it. It wasn't preachy, it was just a great story that taught me a lot, with characters I loved.
