Welcome to St. Hell is a fine graphic novel. I think that it's important to have more trans narratives, especially easily accessible ones. And this is a pretty quick, simple, and informative read. Hancox is bares a lot of his personal struggles, and I applaud him for the levity he's willing to inject in his reflections. But... it was not that interesting to me personally. It was a fine book. Just a little boring for me.

Very good and relatable comic about growing up transmasc / a trans man and all the kinds of hell and struggles that brings with it. 
Love the positive and encouraging ending and love also the list of resources for LGBTQ+ people at the very end.

5.0

This funny, honest, self-compassionate, perfectly cringy, loving, empowering graphic memoir of growing up trans in suburban England in the 90s and early 00s is just such a gift. I loved how Lewis, as an all-grown-up transman, self-inserts, visits, accepts, and tries to help his younger self, Lois, and all the humor and honesty with which he depicts his teen years and his transition. So grateful this book exists!

A really great graphic novel that's honest but also incredibly hopeful and endearing. Was also great to read something in the dialect I grew up with
