A review by kerasalwaysreading
I'm a Wild Seed by Sharon Lee De La Cruz

5.0

I think this is a book that should be read by ALL, no matter ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality… In this book, De La Cruz busts through all of that with such a realness and it was refreshing. This is her story. This is her journey and I am in awe. It’s a read I think everyone can gain something from.

I have had romantic relationships with women, but it wasn’t until my very early 30s that I felt comfortable admitting my queerness. And, I saw a lot of my own feelings expressed in this graphic novel.

I love how De La Cruz doesn’t keep out the oops moments… the moments when she realized she was wrong about certain things. It just felt like a real, raw story and her illustrations… the way she goes about presenting this story of her experiences left me smiling.
