A memoir of getting married when it finally became legal for gay marriage. This is a sweet story but a bit too much about American politics for me, I liked the more personal stuff.

A wide-ranging graphic memoir that blends personal reflections with political history. My only real complaint is that I wasn't a huge fan of Kirby's art style.

I expected to like this more but it felt disconnected. The personal bits were too short for me to connect to the Kirby or his husband. Then the time between 2013-2023 was a sprint and the one-per-page comics to describe huge events/periods was discombobulating. Then the ending was anticlimactic. There wasn’t enough of a link to either the personal or the informative angle of gay marriage. I did like the way some of the art was repeated/arranged, but I don’t know that this needed to be a book.
