Title: Changers
Description: 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, an Asian-American girl who 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, and how the expectations of the outside world can't help but color the way we see ourselves. Kim&#x;smart, funny, and finally fed up with the cards she's been dealt&#x;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.
