About
Transgender author Agnes Borinsky deftly explores gender identity and queer romance in this heart-wrenching debut novel.
Alex feels like he is in the wrong body. His skin feels strange against his bones. And, then comes Tracy, who thinks he's adorably awkward, who wants to kiss him, who makes him feel like a Real Boy. But, it is not quite enough. Something is missing.
As Alex grapples with his identity, he finds himself trying on dresses and swiping on lipstick in the quiet of his bedroom. He meets Andre, a gay boy who is beautiful and unafraid to be whom he is. Slowly, Alex begins to realize: maybe his name isn't Alex at all. Maybe it's Sasha Masha.
