I enjoyed this graphic novel story collection more than most books of its type. There were few that missed for me, but there are some real gems in here.

This is a really cute collection of queer short comics. I must say I was hoping for a bit more queer joy and not just as the resolution of self-discovery. Most of these stories are about the struggle or coming out of self acceptance. While that is totally needed as well, I'm craving more queer joy without the sadness. 
It does need mentioning that the art styles from all these artists are great and all have their own flair!
