Welcome to St. Hell: My Trans Teen Misadventure: A Graphic Novel by Lewis Hancox

challenging funny medium-paced

5.0

Since he was a young child, Lewis knew that he felt like a boy in a girl’s body.  But in the UK in the 2000s, he wouldn’t discover the word “transgender,” and what it meant for him, until he was well into young adulthood.  In his wonderful graphic memoir, Lewis describes the struggles of living as a girl during his teen years—from hair pulling to disordered eating to obsessively bodybuilding—and the process of discovering his sexuality and gender identity, told in his native British vernacular with equal parts humor and heart.
