I'm normally not super interested in YA romance at this point in my life. This book was definitely written for a younger target audience that I am not a part of. However, this a book that I wish I had as a teen, and I feel it's too important of a story to not give 5 stars.

As far as trans characters go, Felix is great and realistic representation. He goes through up and downs that hit very close to home to my own experiences. It is a very loving portrayal, and even though Felix definitely faces hardships, the way his story is written brings a feeling of hope and happiness that I think a lot of trans kids and teens need and appreciate. There were a handful of trans stories out when I was a teen myself, but they were focused on their struggles and the sadness. I never found a book like this that was just joyful, and it was a breath of fresh air. I would have really looked up to Felix if I had read this when I was his age.

Overall, I think this a story that just about anyone can enjoy, but for the trans kids out there trying to find out who they truly are, this could change their lives.
