|summary=Stunning dual narrative story is hugely powerful, and explores gender identity issues with wonderful characters and a hopeful ending.

}}

Fourteen-year-old David has always known that he is a transgender girl. (Note: As David uses male pronouns in his internal dialogue I have continued to do so in my review.) However David has chosen a new girl's name and collects feminine clothes to express that inner self. This is a secret kept from everyone except his best friends Essie and Felix. When Leo Denton, who also has a secret, moves to David's school Eden Park from the rougher Cloverdale, the worlds of the two collide.

As mentioned above, my other favourite contemporary of the coming year is [[The Last Leaves Falling by Sarah Benwell]]. If you want to read more books with wonderful portrayals of LGBT+ characters, I'd highly recommend [[Lies We Tell Ourselves by Robin Talley]] and [[Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan]].
