Welcome to St. Hell: My Trans Teen Misadventure: A Graphic Novel by Lewis Hancox
funny
reflective
fast-paced
3.75
A lighthearted spin on a memoir, though what I enjoyed most is the unexpected wave of nostalgia from the fact I grew up in St Helens at the same time as Lewis. Though, we called it Smellins, not St Hell.
I could recognize so many of the places: Such as every alternative kid going to Overload (the under 18s rock night at the Citadel) to get drunk, or knowing which exact street was being referenced. I wonder if I ever crossed paths with him without knowing?
