“She was the woman who’d come here to ask about love. She was the woman who’d decided to change her entire life with nothing but a list. She was the woman who survived, every single day. She was Chloe fucking Brown, and she was starting to wonder if she’d been brave from the beginning. If she’d just needed to love herself enough to realize it.”
I’ll be totally honest and say I’ve had this book sitting on my bookshelves for almost three weeks before I decided to pick it up (thanks, booktube hype!). The sequel, Take a Hint, Dani Brown, didn’t even need to sit on my bookshelves because I’m currently devouring it. -

“Being trans brings me love. It brings me happiness, It gives me power. It makes me feel like I’m a god. I wouldn’t change myself for anything.”
Disclaimer: This book features a Black, queer, transgender main character. As I am not any of those things, I can’t speak for the representation of these groups!
TW: transphobia, bullying & use of deadname
Where, oh where, do I even start with this one?
I stumbled upon Felix Ever After in the usual way; seeing people rave about it online. After an impromptu trip to the bookstore w/ my mom, I saw it in all its gorgeous-cover glory on display and had to pick it up! As I’ve mentioned in my previous post, I’ve dedicated June to reading books by/featuring LGBTQIAP+ or POC characters, and just couldn’t say no to this one.
