Although a tough nut to crack sometimes it is a great guide into Queer theories and conversations regarding sexuality and gender.

This was nothing like what I thought it would be. I thought it would be about queer events and people throughout history, but it was all about the development of queer theory.

It read like an academic journal article, and that's not a compliment. Journal articles are meant to be boring and dull and full of academic language - which this graphic novel was. It was such a struggle to get through this and the whole thing sounded incredibly pretentious.

I got nothing of value out of this and I am beyond thrilled that I finally finished it.
