Idlewild by James Frankie Thomas
0.25
dark reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

There is a lot that I hated about this book, but only one thing I think worth mentioning. There still are not a lot of trans books, and we're currently in a time period where we're fighting to be allowed to exist. So to have the one trans character have it be a life ruining fact, and to go off the rails like that feels deeply wrong.
