Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe

informative reflective fast-paced

4.0

when i first heard about this book i wasn't immediately interested, but given all of the controversy in the book world with bans and challenges i felt like i needed to read it just to see what all the fuss was about. this book deepened my understanding of pronoun choice, especially those that seem 'outside the norm' (i.e. she, he, they). if anything, reading the book has moved me from a position of neutrality on the title to one of strong support. this is an important work to have available for those who need the ability to see themselves in a piece of work and for those who are seeking to better understand the inner lives of others.
