Thank you, Maia. This book is beautifully written and illustrated, and puts on a page so many elusive ideas and feelings I've had. A cathartic read with so much queer joy 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

Maia Kobabe’s (e/em/eir) memoir is insightful and relatable. It’s also frequently challenged for removal. E writes eir journey to discovering gender identity with such thoughtfulness and care. E describes growing up as mortifying and traumatic, but also humorous. There are a few HP references, but it was published in 2019 before JKR went full transphobe. Books and stories like this need to be told. And often. As we’re facing intense censorship of LGBTQIA+ voices and book banning across the U.S., do yourself a favor and pick this one up!
