haven’t read this recently at all, but wanted to review this cause it absolutely changed my life when i was a kid. i read this in about 2017 or so when i was roughly 11/12 (i dont remember exactly), and it was the first time i had ever seen a trans character. in anything. i wanted to be Alex so deeply. my copy of this book has been read many times and has the wear and tear to prove it
genuinely idk where i would be if i hadn’t read this and been like “wait… i don’t have to be a girl?”
thanks rick riordan for being part of my trans awakening (along with obsessively watching dan and phil on youtube as a 12 year old) <3
