Very insightful look at being transgender and having dissociative identity disorder. It also showed why dissociative identity disorder can develop. Her journey was heartbreaking and I’m so glad she was able to find the resources she needed eventually. Fuck Toby, we hate Toby.

This book was so well done. I loved getting to learn about D.I.D. alongside Emma, and was surprised by how much affection I had for her disparate parts. The art style was really compelling in both its simplicity and the complexity of emotion, action, and thought it was able to convey. The black out boxes were a great choice, especially after reading about the authors process of writing the book. And it was fascinating to see the ways that Emma’s D.I.D. and her queerness interacted with one another. Insightful, captivating, and deeply moving.

DID NOT FINISH: 57%

I really appreciated the topic and showing the main character’s sessions with the therapist in discovering DID. It just overly repetitive
