Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe
emotional
hopeful
reflective
fast-paced
4.5
Some people are born in the mountains, while others are born by the sea. Some people are happy to live in the place they were born, while others must make a journey to reach the climate in which they can flourish and grow.
Between the ocean and the mountains is a wild forest. That is where I want to make my home.
4.5⭐ but rounding up to 5⭐
The stream of consciousness narrative style was a little disjointed at times, especially in the graphic novel format. Maybe distinguishing "chapters" of sorts would have made some of those jumps a little less confusing.
But overall, this was a wonderful memoir.
