Description
Still Becoming: A Transition Love Story by Poppy Corn.
Casey Valentine has spent her whole life packing like she won’t be back.
Twelve foster placements. Two removals for things as ordinary as nail polish and a borrowed dress. She’s learned to survive by never getting comfortable — never letting anyone close enough to leave a mark when they inevitably go.
Then she starts college, living openly as herself for the first time, and meets people determined to make comfortable look easy: an RA who declares best friendship without asking, a roommate guarding a secret of her own, and Gage — the boy from high school who never stopped looking for her, and who has an infuriating habit of showing up exactly when she’s decided she doesn’t need anyone.
Casey is good at surviving. She’s never been great at staying — and staying is exactly what Gage is asking of her, one slow, stubborn step at a time, even as the past she’s spent years outrunning finally catches up to both of them.
Still Becoming is a warm, funny, slow-burn love story about what happens after the hardest part: when you’ve fought just to exist, and someone finally asks you to live.
