Alex is ready for things to change, in a big way. Everyone seems to think she's a boy, but for Alex the whole boy/girl thing isn't as simple as either/or, and when she decides girl is closer to the truth, no one knows how to react, least of all her parents.Undeterred, Alex begins to create a new identity for herself: ditching one school, enrolling in another, and throwing out most of her clothes. But the other Alex-the boy Alex-has a lot to say about that. Heartbreaking and droll in equal measures, Alex As Well is a brilliantly told story of exploring gender and sexuality, navigating friendships, and finding a place to belong.

Really great book. Spent a while wondering where it was set though (think it was Australia 🇦🇺). anyways, this was such a great look into the lives of those who are intersex and trans. I loved how the story came from the perspectives of the two Alex's. All in all, just a great little read ☺

So after the trans book from the UK yesterday, I tracked down this intersex one from Australia today. I loved its upbeat humour and its straightforward approach to such a tough, complicated issue. I just wish Mum hadn't been so weak and selfish. #LGTBQIA #loveozya #2013release
