About this listen

“Each poem is as raw as it is beautiful.” —Alex Gino, author of ALA Stonewall Award-winning novel Melissa

A middle grade novel in verse about a young trans girl who uses a computer game to process an ADHD diagnosis, isolation, and her relationship to gender for fans of
Too Bright to See by Kyle Lukoff.

J—’s life is consumed by the roller coaster video game Coaster Boss, and by the power she exerts over the pixelated theme park attendees. Her life outside the game, however, is less controllable.

Me.
I’m such a big space. I break the universe, a glitch.

She's navigating ADHD, the loneliness of middle school, and an overwhelming crush on a girl named Junie. J— is convinced that Junie sees her as who she really is, a person who isn’t “bad” just because she doesn't stay quiet and sit still in class. As a person who is realizing that the name she's been given doesn’t really fit her. And that maybe boy doesn’t either.

Glitch Girl! follows J— from fifth to seventh grade, from the beginning to the end of her obsession with Coaster Boss, and to the start of a new friendship. When J— meets Sam, a nonbinary classmate, she begins to realize that it's okay to not fit into neat, pixelated boxes.

Critic reviews

“Each poem is as raw as it is beautiful.”
—Alex Gino, author of ALA Stonewall Award-winning novel Melissa

"Rainie Oet brings a fresh and affecting poetic voice to this tender tale of neuro-spiciness and gender quest. Her depiction of gaming's power for good in today's young lives is keenly observed and quirkily imagined. This is an original and necessary book." —Lisa Bunker, author of Felix XY and Zenobia July.

"Explore[s] the intensity and isolation of adolescence. Rainie’s writing is a gift to young readers.” —Mary Karr, Whiting Award winning and New York Times bestselling author of The Liar's Club

"Poignant, illuminating. ...accessible, immersive." —Booklist
