Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe

emotional informative reflective fast-paced

3.0

Read as a requirement for my Queer Genre class.

While this is such an important and valuable read for others, for me, it just didn't hit right. There were moments I could relate to that I have never seen verbalized, but I couldn't fully enjoy it, honestly. I wasn't a huge fan of the art style, and I thought that this novel ended quite abruptly. I know it's kind of the point that it's not the end of eir story, but I was sure that some pages were missing when I finished. 

Overall, I would still highly recommend this to others as a valuable read when learning about non-binary identities and one coming to terms with it, but I don't think I quite vibe with it as an artistic piece.
