What an excellent book. I learned way more than I thought I would! The author does a great job of storytelling and I really feel like I have a much deeper understanding of how trans and nonbinary experiences can be after reading. I think everyone would benefit from reading this! Honestly it is way more tame than I thought it would be considering how controversial and banned it is. Hats off to the author for putting it out there, what a brave thing to do. I feel grateful for the reading experience!

Injury/gore is metaphorical and features a character impaled on a spike in a couple of different instances. It metaphorically represents emotional/physical pain and features some amount of blood, nothing else. Blood warning mainly applies to menstrual blood.

With the content warnings, I feel it is important to note that nothing in this book depicts abuse or hate.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is an autobiographical comic about Maia Kobabe’s gender identity. I understand why it has been such a challenged book because some of the scenes are very graphic, but I think it has an important purpose and message.
