This looks really interesting. I've set myself a goal of exposing myself to more YA queer lit for next year, so this might be just the book to get me started.
Thanks so much for your post, Lee!

Isn't it great? I've got Nora's book in my e-reader. At the moment, I'm just finishing off reading an anthology, and I'll be diving into her novel. Hooray for LGBT teens and specfic! :D
Just finished reading this. It was entertaining, but didn't reach my (admittedly quite high) expectations. The trans representation was lacking in many ways, which is pretty unfortunate because that was one of the biggest reasons I chose this particular book to be the first thing I read on my shiny new Kindle.
I'd recommend it most for people who are bisexual, questioning, or straight, but I'm sure that it would appeal to lesbian and gay folks as well; I can think of better books for transgender people, but that doesn't guarantee that no trans people would like it.
