When you are a teenager, working out who you really are and what you want to do with your life, can be hard. It is even harder for Alex who has questions about his identity and struggles with what his parents and doctors chose for him not long after he was born. This is a brave story that looks at gender - something we usually take for granted. It is startling, occasionally shocking but it gets you thinking about how our lives get shaped and how important it is to be who you really want to be.
Who would enjoy this? If you like challenging stories that take you to the edge of your comfort zone, then you will find this is a great read.
