I chose this book to read during pride month, which turned out perfectly as the narrative time frame of this novel. This coming-of-age story encapsulates the experience of being a teen perfectly; questioning the world around us, our bodies, our friendships, our identities, and our first loves. 

The narrative voice was so brilliantly portrayed as a teen that I (as an adult) often felt uncomfortable reading, having learnt the lessons Felix is still learning. I would have enjoyed this much more when I was younger, and I am grateful young people have stories such as these, discussing the topics foregrounded in this book. I am sure many young people would feel less alone. 

Overall, a very fun and educational read, but clearly targeted for a younger audience.
