Hmm. I definitely appreciated this book--I almost always love painful honesty, and that's pretty much Alison Bechdel's jam. There's a lot of layers here, like there were in [b:Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic|38990|Fun Home A Family Tragicomic|Alison Bechdel|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327652831s/38990.jpg|911368], which I loved. I think..... hmm. Hm. A LOT of this book was rehashing Alison Bechdel's therapy sessions, which does make for an interesting confessional vibe, but which can also get kind of draggy? I had to read this in slow, thoughtful chunks. Worth the effort.
