All Kinds of Other
Description
In this tender, nuanced coming-of-age love story, two boys--one who is cis, and one who is trans--have been guarding their hearts, until their feelings for each other give them a reason to stand up to their fears.
Two boys are starting over at a new high school.
Jules is still figuring out what it means to be gay...and just how out he wants to be.
Jack is reeling from a fall-out with his best friend...and isn't ready to let anyone else in just yet.
When Jules and Jack meet, the sparks are undeniable. But when a video linking Jack to a pair of popular trans vloggers is leaked to the school, the revelations thrust both boys into the spotlight they'd tried to avoid.
Suddenly Jack and Jules must face a choice: to play it safe and stay under the radar, or claim their own space in the world--together.

Reviews
James Sie writes with a keen observation of human behavior and rich, breathtaking details that make his characters leap to life. All Kinds of Other is a fresh--and needed--perspective on identity: the things we protect, what we reveal and how we love. I am in awe of this book; it was hard to put down.--Maulik Pancholy, author of The Best at It
A touching, romantic, and rewarding read.--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
