Man o' war  Cover Image Book Book

Man o' war / by Cory McCarthy.

McCarthy, Cory, (author.).

Summary:

"Man o' wars are not jellyfish, and River McIntyre is not happy. They don't know why they're unhappy. Perhaps it has something to do with the way they relate more to the captive marine life at the local aquarium than the people around them-until they have a run-in with Indigo "Indy" Waits on the annual class field trip. Face-to-face with an affirmed queer person, River leaps out of the closet and into the shark tank. Literally. What follows is a wrenching journey of self-discovery that spans years and winds through layers of coming out, transition, and top surgery, promising a free life for River with so much more than happiness: A life that's full of trans joy and true love." --Page 4 of cover.
