Summary
"A transgender teen grapples with his dreams for the future and a crush on his debate partner, all while preparing to to debate trans rights at Nationals"--, Provided by publisherTaking home the gold at the National Speech & Debate Tournament would not only be the pinnacle of Finch Kelly's debating career, but the perfect way to launch himself into his next chapter: college in Washington, D.C. and a history-making career as the first trans congressman. What could possibly go wrong? Well, for starters, Finch could develop a teeny tiny crush on his very attractive, very taken, and very gay debate partner, Jonah. And that dream of college in DC? Finch hasn't exactly been accepted anywhere yet, let alone received the full-ride scholarship he'll need to make this dream a reality. Worst of all, this year's topic for Nationals: transgender rights. If he wants to cinch the gold, Finch might have to argue against his own humanity. -- adapted from jacket
