I waited SO LONG to read this book and it was worth the wait. 

It was a beautifully written and illustrated graphic memoir full of unanswered questions, doubts, and lots of gay things. Basically, a book right up my alley. 

I don’t think I can talk enough about the amazing metaphors and similes throughout the book that helpfully depict Maia’s thoughts and feelings. Specifically, I enjoyed and appreciated the “gender is a landscape” metaphor. 

The jumps in time would normally have annoyed me as this tactic usually does, but in this case, the time jump confusion only enhanced Maia’s confusion in emselves and how e identified. 

There’s no doubt this is an important book that anyone should read if they so choose.
