I like this middle grade novel about a child coming to terms with their identity. It explores transracial adoption (which I don't find a lot of in middle grade books) as well as some LGBTQIA+ categories. I also thought the exploration of a first relationship was pretty accurate. For those of you in Maine, the writer grew up in southern Maine before moving to NYC.
