I did not realize this was a memoir. I got a copy from the rainbow bus. It very vulnerable. It probably will help someone. I hope the author is in a better place. We deserve happiness.

It has been such a long time since I have read a graphic novel. Its really helping me ease through my depression. This was an interesting story beautifully drawn. I truly enjoyed it. It made me smile and gasp.

The more I read romance books the pain of no love in my life grows sharper. This debut ARC I have some wishes that are too late to be done now: trigger warning for fat phobia and body image issues (which is added to the authors website), would have loved more Spanish specifically in Marcela & angela convo, the love interests are white and everyone knows by know how I feel about that *deep sigh*. Overall I really enjoyed this book. I can relate to the body type, abandonment, foreign culture, fears, and ugh the smut was so good. I especially wished the penetrative intimacy wouldn't be seen as it is but that is the heteronormative misconception. I wanted to cry and probably will. Ugh to be lonely but at least I have romance books like these.

Was a weird format in chapter but my first satire i believe. Was sad and ridiculous which is to be expected. Skipped through the last two or three chapters. Felt like I read enough. Overall was interesting

It has been ages since I've read a completely wordless book if I ever have. This is the most gorgeous book I've ever had. A picture is a thousand words. This book has an infinite amount telling a story of a traveler always onto the next planet and going home. I do wonder if the earthling would have went with the traveler and why he stayed. The mushrooms seem harmless. Why did people not stay?

I want to spit and scream at how this book has torn me apart & put me back together. I really hope one day I can be happy like completely. This is gut wrenching.

I enjoyed many elements of this book. I am not familiar with many aspects of American culture. I have been to Tennessee Nashville & Memphis respectively and feel like I understand the culture historically of Memphis. This is not a happy book. But it is an important one.

Amazing ace & pcos rep in a romance of sorts. I felt connected to this story as a queer person with pcos. Quick read that may be a great resource for people on the sexuality and anatomy side.

For a debut very well done. A few errors and rewording needing but other wise I got the feels. I am 24 and I feel like I will always be unseen unloved and unwanted. I want healthy love bomb sex and long term partnership. But it probably won't happen but for everyone who has it this is your story.
