This book is a gift in understanding people who struggle with their gender. It gave me a new view to people who are living this way and be not understood.

Honestly there were some good parts. this is a book by a non-binary author and it handles Blaise's journey and coming out gracefully (with some idealised world of coming out but they deserve it).

The romance was not likeable and the whole concept of nerd vs jock bu adults in their 30's was frankly annoying (also Blaise has some serious trauma from bullying and grief and does not see a therapist about it but immediatly goes to see a gender therapist when they realise something about themselves? really incoherent.

Christie was not a good love interest: obsessive, always pushing without asking (and this gets adressed and then happen again), they had no chemistry and I couldn't understand how they got together.
