Undeniably addicting and beautifully honest. I feel that this book will hold as one of my favorite graphics novels of all time. Informative on the many queer-ies (get it? Like queer but question- okay forget it) of those who don't conform to their gender at birth, and addressed issues and conversations queer people must go through in order to survive.

I hope young queer kids can read this, and feel less and less alone in their perfect, valid identity.
(Doesn't hurt that I loved the art style! So cute!)

“Some people are born in the mountains, while others are born by the sea. Some people are happy to live in the place they were born, while others must make a journey to reach the climate in which they can flourish and grow. Between the ocean and the mountains is a wild forest. That is where I want to make my home.” p. 191
