I actually enjoyed this and was frustrated by it in equal measures, I think, but was willing to make a lot of allowances because of first novel syndrome, and yay, gay protagonist.

But when they played the "haha trans would be the worst thing ever" card as a joke, I had to put the Kobo down. >.>
(When Braden's testing whether he can lie again after eating the magicked cookie - he says "I'm really a girl" and Trey reacts like it is the most horrific thing ever.)

Maybe I should put "YA novels with trans protagonists" in the pipeline. I think there's at least four in existence.

I would be curious to see what they're like.

I pointed out how flawed it is! ;)

My abominably late review here.

(All I had to do was repost it! But it was so short, I thought I should expound on it more! ...yeah, I should have known that would never happen.)
