I adore a graphic memoir and Bechdel's classic is now among my favorites! Tackling complicated family relationships, especially between Bechdel and her father who had a very secret self she only learned about after his tragic death (maybe suicide), and her own coming out.

I loved the lush black and white illustrations with just a hint of bluish-gray color, and while the literary references bordered on a bit overwhelming, they were just right for each use. Thank you Ms. Bina and AP World Lit, without which I would be lost.

I finally read this (why it took so long, who knows) for my 2017 Book Riot Read Harder Challenge: Read a Book Frequently Banned in Your Country.
