Publisher's summary

From the acclaimed authors of Hurricane Season and Ana on the Edge, an unforgettable story about the importance of and joy in finding a community, for fans of Alex Gino and Ashley Herring-Blake.

Twelve-year-old Abigail (she/her/hers) is so excited to spend her summer at Camp QUILTBAG, an inclusive retreat for queer and trans kids. She can’t wait to find a community where she can be herself—and, she hopes, admit her crush on Laura Dern to kids who will understand.

Thirteen-year-old Kai (e/em/eir) is not as excited. E just wants to hang out with eir best friend and eir parkour team. And e definitely does not want to think about the incident that left eir arm in a sling—the incident that also made Kai’s parents determined to send em somewhere e can feel like emself.

After a bit of a rocky start at camp, Abigail and Kai make a pact to help each other find their footing, all while navigating crushes, their queer identities, and a competition pitting cabin against cabin.

Good enough to pass the time, not edge-of-your-seat good (probably would’ve been better with a different narrator)

The book was likable, if not lovable. The narration is awful. The characters sound whiny and artificial, too young or too old. It also glitched at the start. I really hate multiple narrators; so jarring!! It definitely took away from the story a little. Overall, okay book. It was sweet and talked about a ton of identities, which was cool. Novels usually seem to just have gay, bi, trans and sometimes enby. Though, if you’re like me, and do a ton of research, I’m sorry to say you’ll learn nothing new. I read This Is Our Rainbow a few months ago, so getting to revisit Kai and Abigail was fun. The characters are very human, for the most part (I’m a queer kid, I've met a bunch of other queer kids and in my experience we really are pretty proficient in our knowledge of labels, pronouns, and flags, depending on the individual, of course) . Juliana wasn’t the best representation of an autistic character-I was surprised because I A.J. Sass is autistic-but she was fairly well written, I suppose. The plot is a little slow, I mean it seriously takes a while to get going. It definitely had its great moments though, the last hour or so was especially good though. So, I’d say, if you’re looking for a rollicking queer adventure, probably turn to something else first. But if you’re looking for knowledge on different identities in the form of an entertaining novel-especially if you’re questioning-I’d certainly recommend this. But maybe go for a physical copy.

Annoying Narrators but a Good Book

Overall I liked this book, but it wasn't my absolute favorite. It was nice and inclusive and I've never read a book with a character who used neopronuns. It was a bit of an adjustment but I think it was good for me to learn. However the narrators were SUPER annoying. The narrator for Abigail was really whiny and the narrator for Kai did HORRIBLE voices for female characters. And their voice for Stick was absolutely horrible and reminded me of an annoying old man. But the book itself was good.
