Georgia might be the most dislikable character ever.

Though it was a good story with a lot relatable scenarios and dialogue (I'm a transman myself), the ending was very abrupt. There was a lot of traumatic stuff that happened in the last hour of the book and they just seemed to gloss over it by giving the book a fairytale like ending. *some spoilers ahead so be warned if you keep reading*I would've loved to read more about the actions taken against the boys who assaulted Pony and about the father being more accepting towards his son's gender identity. And as horrible as stories about transgender people tend to be, the trauma Pony experienced will need to be worked through and not be looked at as just something to add so there can be a grand gesture at the end.
