Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe

emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.5

I saw myself in Maia’s story and that’s rare for me. I appreciated the vulnerability and vivid depictions of  everyday experiences that are actually painful and distressing - like misgendering, medical appointments, shopping and conversations with allosexual and/or cisgender people — moments that people who are not trans or GNC or asexual don’t tend to grasp. This is a short but useful read that can be cathartic and comforting for those who relate or educational and eye opening for those who don’t. the ending felt cut short, but maybe that’s a good sign that I wanted more from em!
