Found it very bleak. The literary references went over my head.

“Sexual shame is in itself a kind of death.”
I don’t usually like or read graphic novels, but this books is an exception. What a unique way to write a memoir. The way Bechdel reflects on how she connects her queerness with her father’s in the last chapter is particularly poignant.
