This book was really just so-so; maybe don’t waste your time??
A.C. needs to find a much better editor. “ There” being used when it should be “their”(possessive). And “your” being written when “you’re” is the correct word.
“I quickly changed my clothes and HIT the suit in the back of my closet.“
“I wasn’t going to campus today. I wasn’t even pretending to go. I’LL CALLED OUT SICK.”
Extremely poor editing, and only a so-so book. Alex admitted to being trans in book 1, but by the end of book 2, still hadn’t told his family. I get that it takes courage, but - seriously??

Gender Choice or Gender Fixed? How Do You Deal With The Issues?
Alex has always felt like a boy, even with the body of a girl and the legal name Alexandria and sex marked F on her Student ID and Driver's License. The ID was revised but that did not solve the problem of personal relationships and friendship building without explanations and physical modifications to support the truth and desires with understanding and acceptance.
