I really enjoyed this because the voices of the characters pulled me in in a way I didn't expect. I found fault with a few things, and was very annoyed that Felix's dad was described as babysitting him when the accident occured - dad's aren't babysitters of their own children - but I enjoyed the funny and gentle exchanges between Felix and Zyx so much that their dialogue carried me through the story. Featured in a blog post at https://booksbeyondbinaries.blog/2019/05/31/guest-post-by-lisa-bunker/ Children's middlegrade/LGBTQ fiction. This is sort of like Wonder (sweet likeable main character who is ostracized for his differences), except with all sorts of LGBTQ diversity. Felix is gay, the 4th-dimensional alien Zyx who is fused to his body is genderless, Felix' Grandy is gender-inclusive (regularly switching between Vern, Vera, and something in between within the course of each week and using the pronouns Vo, Vem, Veir), Felix' widowed mother dates both women and men, and Felix makes a friend who turns out to be a trans male. Incidentally, Felix' crush is of mixed race. storywise, the plot moves along quickly and is pretty satisfying. This moved too slowly, and the overabundance of self-conscious quirk will be too much for most of my students. The premise sounds funny and is easy to sell to kids, but it never realizes its promise. Most similar in tone to Dan Gemeinhart's The Honest Truth: a kid's journey to deal with their possible impending mortality. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
