Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe
4.5
emotional hopeful reflective sad medium-paced

This is such a needed graphic novel. Because it’s a memoir, you really vibe with the author/illustrator Maia but simultaneously, e has included so many generous and helpful signposts and little factoids to help readers who are not deeply involved in conversations about their gender identities. I screamed twice because I felt seen in ways that I hadn’t ever prepared to see in print. This novel is for everyone and I hope that lots and lots of people read it.
