Symptoms of Being Human

An important, thoroughly engaging read. While some found the protagonist too whiny and self-absorbed, I found Riley was a very believable teen voice. However, the novel is not without its flaws. Bec was too manic pixie dream girl for my tastes. And I think the author lost a big opportunity to introduce gender-neutral pronouns, and discuss in general how improper pronoun use can further harm trans and non-binary individuals.
