This graphic novel was stunningly illustrated and did a great job talking about a variety of tough situations the author navigated during childhood including bullying, racism, homophobia, and being othered in a variety of spaces and ways. The author also discusses their feelings around their adoption story and relationships with family and friends and how these are impacted by their mental health struggles.
