I stalled a little because of the holidays, but make no mistake, I'm loving this book! A close friend was just made aware that Alana is (born) female. I still think they are pushing, pretty heavy handedly, the idea that they are a girl and MUST be a girl. It is well intentioned, as they tell them (Alan) that they can still be powerful while being female, but I think the others are missing the point. Alan isn't a girl

My heart breaks for Alan, who is being told at every turn that they are a girl, and will be a woman. Babe, no! You can be a man if you want!

Let's go Alan(na)! This girl...boy(?!?) is queer AF even if she doesn't know it. Even if the author doesn't know it. Holy crow. Is this story gonna break my heart? My spirit? Or will it inspire?
