The Witch Boy by Molly Knox Ostertag

Aster is raised in a family and community where girls are witches and boys are expected to become shapeshifters, but he is secretly drawn to witchcraft and hides his practice for fear of disappointing those who love him. When a dangerous force threatens their town, he must decide whether to stay silent or embrace his forbidden gifts, ultimately confronting prejudice, protecting his family, and challenging the community’s rigid gender expectations.
