Wow, just wow. This is the first nonbinary-based book that I have to say I like the representation. It's honest and goes into more the just the how clothing affects. It goes into the confusion e has for eir gender dysphoria. As a trans man, I can relate. Although I am binary, I get the fact of things, especially the trauma of having to go to those exams. And like Maia, I am so reluctant to go again based on the accident go to the wrong clinic where I was verbally abused by a staff member for looking like myself and not someone belonging in a "Woman's Clinic" And the second, yeah, the pain and scar of having to go through the procedure. That tore me at each entry. Knowing that someone else with a uterus has the thoughts of just removing the whole system, and 2 the visual representation of being so out of place was just groundbreakingly amazing.

This book is a graphic memoir that shows the life of the author of how eir gender and sexual orientation have confused eir. I am struck at the parallels in my own life, minus the fact of just wanting to have people always not know if they are that person male or female. E wants short hair, wants to grow hair on other body parts, and I am glad to know that I am not the only trans person who thought yeah, periods just aren't for me.

The pacing of this novel in its 240 pages is fast. It is entertaining, The art conveys the in an interesting way that holds true to the emotions that the words say. I loved the fact that e went on this process, no matter how slow e might have been to come too, same with me cause I had no word meaning I could transition to male till I was much older like late teens. I love the message and becoming comfortable in your own body, even if you have to slightly alter it to get to a better state.
