Description
“This strong entry in the series is a good choice for readers looking for books about friendship, identity, and LGBTQ issues.” -- School Library Journal

When we last saw Oryon Small he was kidnapped and locked in a basement, his best friend Chase dying in his arms. In Book Three of the groundbreaking Changers series, Oryon awakens as Kim Cruz, an Asian American girl whose body looks nothing like she expected or desired.

Where Changers Book One: Drew dealt primarily with issues of gender and bias, and Changers Book Two: Oryon explored issues concerning race and bigotry, Changers Book Three: Kim tackles the thorny, less straightforward subjects of body shaming, self-esteem, grief, mental illness, and how the expectations of the outside world can't help but color the way we see ourselves.

Kim -- smart, funny, and finally fed up with the cards she's been dealt -- is finding out that friends change, love doesn't always mean forever, and growing up means living your truth, even if it isn't pretty.

“Kim's voice and the banter between characters are funny, and they feel real. The identity and marginalization issues loom large, but instead of being shoehorned into side characters, they're scooped up and taken into a deeper, entertaining, fantastic narrative.” -- Kirkus Reviews
