I’m always happy to learn more about the letters across the QUILTBAG spectrum, so this was great for that purpose.īefore I get into the characters and plot events aside from the intersex aspect, I’ll just say that this book is really interesting throughout. The only time I’ve even heard of the term is in the show Faking It. I’ve never read a book about an intersex character and I don’t know of any others that exist. I think this book is so incredibly important and, a lot of the time, super powerful. As her world unravels, can she come to terms with her new self? A visit to the doctor reveals the truth: Kristin is intersex, which means that though she outwardly looks like a girl, she has male chromosomes, not to mention boy 'parts.'ĭealing with her body is difficult enough, but when her diagnosis is leaked to the whole school, Kristin's entire identity is thrown into question. In fact, she's decided that she's ready to take things to the next level with him.īut Kristin's first time isn't the perfect moment she's planned-something is very wrong. She's a champion hurdler with a full scholarship to college and she's madly in love with her boyfriend. When Kristin Lattimer is voted homecoming queen, it seems like another piece of her ideal life has fallen into place.

What if everything you knew about yourself changed in an instant? Incredibly compelling and sensitively told, None of the Above is a thought-provoking novel that explores what it means to be a boy, a girl, or something in between. and what happens when her secret is revealed to the entire school.

A groundbreaking story about a teenage girl who discovers she was born intersex.
