I Am J

The best thing about fiction is that it opens up a world different than your own. We can't really walk in someone else's shoes, but reading a first person narrative lets a reader get into the mind of a character and really feel like you are are experiencing what they are experiencing.
This story is well written, and while I do not know anyone who has gone through J's change, I was glad to know him and spend some time with him. I really think this one may be an award winner this year, and it should win something. I have never read anything like it before, and it was like discovering a whole new planet-and Beam is an excellent guide.
