I enjoyed this middle grade novel by Kyle Lukoff. Although it felt more like YA to me, more like it's for jr. high school readers and above and not for elementary school kids--the age range given for it is 10-14 years old--it was an interesting mix of realistic/fantastical, secular/Jewish, historical/contemporary (historical in that it's set right after the covid lockdown ended; contemporary in that that's barely historical and also in that it explores LGBTQIA+ themes such as transphobia that are unfortunately still as relevant today, five years later, ...and probably will be for at least a few more by the looks of it).
