About this listen
From 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 marginalisation 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 recognising the love you deserve.

- This book and books like it existing = Infinity/5
- I do recommend this book, especially for trans adolescents, with the caveat of checking the content warnings and the understanding that this book, like the protagonist, is flawed and inconsistent.
- The last thing I want to do is put anyone off reading this book (unless due to the CWs), I simply want to share my thoughts and to temper expectations for a more enjoyable experience.
- As flawed and inconsistent as I find this book to be and my own personal issues with some aspects, it is a heartfelt, beautiful, important work.
- The more art means something to me and I like, care about, and respect it and its creator, the more critical I am. I can't help it.
- I think Queer/ trans art needs to be treated with the respect, integrity, and criticism of any other art.
- I am Queer, Genderqueer, and extremely neurodivergent.
I am having too much trouble wrangling my brain in the midst of a C-PTSD conversion symptoms flare up right now to properly her into this review now, but I will come back later. I truly appreciate this book existing. I also have a lot of notes. I only have notes because I care and this is important to me.
For now, this book is important and beautiful, as well as flawed and inconsistent.
The narration by Logon Rozos is sheer perfection. No notes.

The narrator is so good and remained engaging throughout the story.
The story itself was a little chaotic, but I never felt lost. It was interesting to see each of the different branches come together.
A Wild Ride
