Man, this book. It's a series of essays on the author's life, correlated with a different sea creature. Author is NB, but socially raised as a woman who definitely experienced comphet and I understand so much of their story as a late-in-life lesbian. Just such a beautiful read and I would definitely recommend it to any late-in-life or questioning queer.
I also love how she really put her struggles about her body out there.

I could write A LOT about why I loved this book. But I'll be short this time: I am so glad to exist in a world where this book exists and living a life where I read it. Thank you Sabrina.
