From Stonewall and Lambda Award-winning author Kacen Callender comes a revelatory YA novel about a transgender teen grappling with identity and self-discovery while falling in love for the first time. Felix Love has never been in love--and, yes, he' s painfully aware of the irony. He desperately wants to know what it' s like and why it seems so easy for everyone but him to find someone. What' s worse is that, even though he is proud of his identity, Felix also secretly fears that he' s one marginalization too many--Black, queer, and transgender--to ever get his own happily-ever-after. When an anonymous student begins sending him transphobic messages--after publicly posting Felix' s deadname alongside images of him before he transitioned--Felix comes up with a plan for revenge. What he didn' t count on: his catfish scenario landing him in a quasi-love triangle. . . . But as he navigates his complicated feelings, Felix begins a journey of questioning and self-discovery that helps redefine his most important relationship: how he feels about himself. Felix Ever After is an honest and layered story about identity, falling in love, and recognizing the love you deserve.
"Felix explores love, friendship, and possibly retribution in this powerful #OwnVoices story of identity and self-worth. . . Full of warmth, love, and support, this is an important story and an essential purchase. "--School Library Journal (starred review) "Felix Ever After never shies away from the beautiful, messy complexity of love in all its forms. This book is a gift, from start to finish. "--Becky Albertalli, bestselling author of Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda "A firecracker of a book from an author with a powerful point of view, Felix Ever After is refreshingly real--full of queer kids who live and breathe and swear and love and make messy mistakes. Teens need this one. "--Casey McQuiston, bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue "I' ve never read a book that more perfectly balances hardship, hope and happiness. This story shines a spotlight on the one thing that transcends all differences: a desire to be loved and to love in return. "--Nic Stone, bestselling author of Dear Martin "There are stories that are vital and there are stories that are brilliantly crafted. Callender delivers both in this beautiful exploration of friendship, new love, and self. "--justin a. reynolds, author of Opposite of Always "From effervescent characters that I still can' t get out of my head to the sizzling backdrop of a New York City summer, Callender brings vibrance to a story that desperately needed to be told. "--Jackson Bird, author of Sorted: Growing Up, Coming Out, and Finding My Place "This is a story about friendships, finding first loves, and continuing to discover yourself even after you thought you had all the answers. I can' t talk about my love for this book enough--it' s going to change lives. "--Mason Deaver, bestselling author of I Wish You All the Best
