cemeterygay's review against another edition
3.0
While I did really enjoy the discussions of exploration of gender identity and specifically how much the author's experiences rang with my own, the way fandom discussions were had was deeply uncomfortable and quite frankly distracting. The casual positive mentions of Sam/Dean (incest) fics as well as RPF (real person fanfiction) and the intense fixation on gay men was incredibly distracting and hard to read.
I thought the art style was okay and I liked very specific scenes, specifically those related to the depiction of medical.
I don't think I will pick this book back up again but I don't regret reading it.
I wish the Harry Potter references and the fanfiction scenes were removed but everything else was great.

really useful, i loved the illustrations and the author's honesty. there wasn't a strong conclusion to the book, but that kind of makes sense - life goes on and our ideas change.

This was so nice! I started this thinking I would read bits and pieces over the course of the next week or two, but instead I read nearly the entire thing in one sitting. This would be great for anyone, but especially someone in the early stages of questioning their gender.
