Reviews with content warning for Animal death - Snapdragon

IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!!!!! The art style and the tone and the accent that everyone speaks in all mesh perfectly I really feel like this is such a career highpoint for Leyh. The poor rural setting feels so homey and I’ve never read a graphic novel about taxidermy and skeleton articulation!!!! It was so creative and not a career that tends to be of interest to indoor cartoonist kids which is probably why it came as such a surprise to me; there’s a lot of love here and I’m sure it took loads of research!!!

oh my goodness and I wasn’t expecting this degree of lgbt representation at all!!!!! My boss recommended this to me for the trans girl best friend who was sooooooo darling she was so sweet, and then I met jacks and I thought oh wouldn’t it be neat if she was a butch lesbian AND THEN SHE WAS!!!! not just that but a butch lesbian in love with snap’s bisexual grandmother!!!!! I felt like I’d died and gone to heaven it was such a treat to be surprised by that!!!!!!!

oh my goodness I just feel like everyone should read this book. not everyone I suppose because the amount of dead animals can be a big turnoff but for everyone else: read snapdragon!

You ever just know you're going to love something and then when you finally get around to it, you absolutely do??? Yeah, that's me and this book. Also, I want to be Jacks when I grow up.

A soft lgbt+ coming of age story with great imagination and fantastic art. I would have loved reading this as a kid and definitely love it in my adulthood.
