I was able to read this book through my library.
Brief Summary: This graphic novel follows the love story of Sara and Diana through Diana's gender transition. Providing a duel perspective the reader follows Sara and Diana through from the very beginning of Diana's decision to transition and both Sara and Diana's thoughts and feelings throughout the beginning of their journey.
Thoughts: If I could use one word to describe this book it would be heartwarming. Sara and Diana are both so honest about their journey and do not shy away from the more difficult feelings that they had as they navigated this new stage in their relationship. Sara's perspective was very enlightening and honest. Diana's perspective was raw and beautiful.
I also really enjoyed the art throughout the comic and how certain characters were depicted as devoid of color so you knew before the story even started how things were going to go with this character.
They also adopt a cat!
Lovely book and I would recommend you pick it up for you and a friend.

une BD très complète qui retrace les débuts d'une transition avec douceur mais sans oublier les péripéties transphobes.
j'ai beaucoup aimé les dessins !
la façon de raconter est vraiment typique d'un fanzine mais ça change, j'aime bien.
je trouve ça chouette d'avoir le pdv à la fois de Diana et de Sara, ça montre l'intersection des discriminations très bien : transphobie, mysoginie, lesbophobie, biphobie.
les passages de violence ne sont pas atténués et c'est important de ne pas l'avoir fait, mais il n'y a pas non plus un giga focus sur ça. c'est aussi un bol de douceur et d'air frais, avec des passages super mimis, remplis d'amour.
je pense que c'est une BD parfaite pour sensibiliser les personnes à la transidentité, mais c'est aussi chouette à lire en tant que concerné.e parce que ça fait du bien de lire une histoire où tout n'est pas sur-dramatisé :)

I loved this story! As a trans person, the anecdotes were so relatable. The art and colors are also really cute.
