A powerful and emotional story that explores themes of identity, acceptance, and the power of music. The story follows Carey Parker, a genderqueer teen who dreams of being a famous singer but is constantly bullied at school for their gender expression. 

 

Salvatore's writing is both poignant and authentic, capturing the challenges and triumphs of growing up different in a world that often tries to force conformity. Carey's journey is beautifully told, with moments of heartache, hope, and inspiration that will resonate with readers of all ages. 

 

What I loved most about this book is the way it centers on the importance of finding your own voice and standing up for what you believe in, even in the face of adversity. Carey's determination and bravery are truly inspiring, and the exploration of the role of music as a source of solace and empowerment is particularly moving. 

 

Read this one if you are looking for a touching and uplifting coming-of-age story that celebrates individuality and the power of self-expression.
