What an excellent book. I learned way more than I thought I would! The author does a great job of storytelling and I really feel like I have a much deeper understanding of how trans and nonbinary experiences can be after reading. I think everyone would benefit from reading this! Honestly it is way more tame than I thought it would be considering how controversial and banned it is. Hats off to the author for putting it out there, what a brave thing to do. I feel grateful for the reading experience!

Injury/gore is metaphorical and features a character impaled on a spike in a couple of different instances. It metaphorically represents emotional/physical pain and features some amount of blood, nothing else. Blood warning mainly applies to menstrual blood.

So many big thoughts and emotions. I relate to almost all of eir experiences. I felt so seen yet so sad for the confusion and loneliness both of us possessed for so long. So tender yet informative, heartbreaking yet hopeful. Must read for everyone. Redefined what a graphic novel can look like for me.

I’m hopefully going to come back and add to my review once I detangle some of my feelings.

CW for transphobia, homophobia, medical content and trauma, Harry Potter references pre-JKR was openly a blatant transphobe, blood, vomit
