Still struggling through this one. Unrealistic dialogue and plot holes that feel contrived to force the story to go where the author wants. But the kicker right now is parents who take a couple of hours to conclude their kid-in-crisis is a homophobe, fail to listen to him or solicit any meaningful interaction and then wait a year to have a follow up conversation where they learn they’re mistaken.

Right now, this book is feeling really formulaic and the characters are pretty flat. There’s very little sense of anyone’s internal world (other than their worry) and not much stretching for anything that makes this more expansive than the basic story of gender dysphoria. I’m still hoping it gets better?
