The Witch Boy by Lee Knox Ostertag
4.0

Lovely, magical, self-contained story about gender expectations and nonconformity and the power of human connection.  Great cautionary tale about how low-key bigotry can breed something even more evil.  Beautiful visual style with simple and satisfying art.  Lovable characters.  Effortlessly efficient world building.  Didn't quite go where I was thinking it would and maybe wasn't as queer as I had imagined, but in a way that reminds me to keep an open mind that not everything has to be so ambitious.
