Super smart and funny graphic novel about a trans woman being called on to be the “best man” at her college bestie’s bachelor party weekend - on a horrible artificial island inspired by the worst parts of Elon Musk, toxic masculinity and Las Vegas. But wait - is there also a MLM conference hiding something more nefarious? I loved this peek into what it must be like to be your new self despite how others used to know you, and trusting your intuition to call out the BS around you. Sammie has a great supportive community back home encouraging her, which was beautiful.
