![]() ![]() ![]() I know I’m genderfluid, but I haven’t questioned my gender more since working that out as an adult. I’m white, I’ve not medically transitioned and have no plans to. ![]() I’m not going to pretend to relate to everything that Felix goes through. It couldn’t be an easy read and have the impact it seems to have on readers. But to me, that just highlights how impactful this book was. I did get a little uncomfortable, and I did have to keep putting the book down. ![]() I don’t know if I was just in a bad place or if this book kind of triggered my dysphoria. Sometimes he wonders if being black, trans and queer is too much and when someone at school reveals old pictures of him with his dead name… He starts to spiral. He wants to fall in love, he wants to figure out what to do for his portfolio, and he wants to figure out why guy doesn’t always fit right.
