This winner of the first Stonewall Award for Children's & Young Adult Literature will make you marvel at the beauty of human connection and the irrepressible nature of love. Everyone has that one line they swear they'll never cross, the one thing they say they'll never do. We draw the line. Maybe we even believe it.
Sage Hendricks was my line. Logan Witherspoon befriends Sage Hendricks at a time when he no longer trusts or believes in people. He's drawn to Sage, with her constant smile and sexy voice, and his feelings for her grow so strong that he can't resist kissing her. Sage finally discloses a big secret: she was born a boy. Enraged, frightened, and feeling betrayed, Logan lashes out at her-a reaction he soon desperately wishes he could take back. Once his anger cools, Logan is filled with incredible regret, and all he wants is to repair his friendship with Sage. But it's hard to replace something that's been broken--and it's even harder to find your way back to friendship when you began with love. *** Tackles issues of homophobia, hate crimes and stereotyping with humor and grace in an accessible tone that will resonate with teens. -Kirkus Reviews It is Sage's story that is truly important. -SLJ Teens--both those familiar with transgender issues and those who are not--will welcome the honest take on a rarely explored subject. -Booklist A sensitive examination of the seldom treated subject of transgender teens. -VOYA
