Watchmen by Alan Moore
Did not finish book. Stopped at 31%.

Assigned reading for a class with a really shitty professor that I ended up dropping. From what I did read, Watchmen is just as infuriating as the professor who assigned it.

The Book of Non-Binary Joy by Ben Pechey

hopeful inspiring lighthearted medium-paced

3.75

This book does exactly what it sets out to do, and it does it well, but I felt it had nothing new to teach me about living my best life as a nonbinary person because I've already learned these things through lived experience.

Queers Were Here by Robin Ganev, R.J. Gilmour

i picked this up for a fun read and got a dense and frankly dry academic text.

A Quick & Easy Guide to Asexuality by Molly Muldoon

hopeful informative lighthearted fast-paced

5.0

Short, cute, and very effectively delivers on it's title premise - a quick, friendly, accessible graphic novel-style explanation of asexuality, aromanticism, and some mythbusting and explanation of the issues ace and aro folks face. Stays pretty surface-level, but says at the start of the book that it's going to do so.
