Really enjoyed the layout of this - it's a huge book but goes by very fast. It was a very interesting story, but I also wanted to strangle the therapist the whole time.
This was such a great book! Despite being quite simple, I found the graphics so emotive and gripping. Not knowing much about DID I come away with a much clearer understanding. As a therapist myself, I found the book a hard read at times, due to the fact that the therapist ‘Toby’ was so disrespectful and actually quite psychologically abusive at times. I was so happy that Emma found someone better by the end.

this memoir about being both trans and having dissociative identity disorder (d.i.d) is an absolute marvel and a privilege to read. funny, incisive, poignant, insightful, there aren’t enough words in my vocabulary to articulate just how important i think this book is. emma grove has done an incredible job being able to open up some of her deepest wounds and share them with the rest of us, it was an honor to be allowed to witness them. while the page count might be daunting, i was able to finish the book in a handful of hours, but as i got closer to finishing it i didn’t want emma’s story to end. amazing work, absolutely necessary reading.
The pacing and chronology was frustrating as hell. Wanted to throttle the first therapist. I get that we were seeing the author’s perspective on events but I think a more straightforward telling would have been more insightful.

This was a hard book to read. As.a Therapist I was horrified about Toby’s behaviors. But it was also fascinating going into the mind of someone diagnosed with DID. This is also entangled with the Emma being transgender and wanting to transition.
