A beautiful story. I was a bit teary at the end with the note to es parents. @LeeRHarry I‘m so glad I found this book. Explains a lot to me. I‘m getting a copy for my 16 year old grandson. Though he well may have read it already. A very heart felt memoir. I‘m not a graphic novel fan but the words and drawings are clear and very well done.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

LeeRHarry Glad you enjoyed it 😊 1d

Gender Queer: a Memoir | Maia Kobabe

This graphic novel , a memoir, has been banned in some states in the US. Now a Queensland politician has been trying to ban it here in Australia. Taking his case to the high court!! I can‘t believe it. It was published in 2020.
It is Maias story. I‘m looking forward to reading it .

LeeRHarry I thought this was great, hope you do too. 😊 3d

How to Be a Normal Person | Tj Klune

My infinity star read. This book is the equivalent of a comfy pair of pyjamas, something I slip back into whenever I'm ill or anxious or possibly both. What's not love about an asexual stoner hipster and an idiosyncratic curmudgeon living platonically ever after together? It has all the feels, laugh out loud moments, and harbours the only miscommunication trope that I've ever enjoyed. I've basically read (and reread) all of Klune's books now!

slategreyskies I‘ve never heard of this book. Stacking! 💕 4w

TheIntrovertedDodoBird @slategreyskies Enjoy! 💞 There's a sequel, too -

How to Be a Movie Star

slategreyskies I ended up picking up copies of both today. I‘m here for the demi and ace rep. 🌈 💕 4w

TheIntrovertedDodoBird @slategreyskies Oh my goodness... I hope you enjoy them! I actually had an ace awakening when I read this one the first time 🩶🤍💜🖤. That's why it means such a great deal to me. A-spec rep is so difficult to find. And Klune is ace himself, so that's even better. If you enjoy his writing, he has tones of other books, too. I'll keep a look out for your thoughts if you decide to post them on here 🏳️‍🌈💞. 4w

TheIntrovertedDodoBird @TieDyeDude Ooh, you'll love it! This was my very first ace read (and my ace awakening!) 🩶🤍💜🖤. 4w

TheIntrovertedDodoBird @TieDyeDude The sequel is fantastic, roo, this time with a demi character at the helm -

How to Be a Movie Star

TieDyeDude Nice! Thanks for the recommendation. It's so cool that you found your identity through this book. I think I came across the concept in a psychology magazine or something, but I always identified with Jughead's seeming lack of interest in dating 😅 It has been nice seeing increased representation in the past few years, though (well, an increase from nothing to occasionally something). (edited) 4w

TheIntrovertedDodoBird @TieDyeDude It's awesome how we all find our identities in so many different ways. Representation is so important. I just hope ace rep becomes more and more prominent (I think I've read most of the good stuff now). I wish I had these books in secondary school when I was at my most confused. Yes! Jughead's lack of interest in dating and absence of crushes was something I connected with at the start of finding my identity! He's awesome 😄. 3w

A beautiful story. Light and simple but full of sentiment. A little cozy novella for those who'd like to read something pleasant and refreshing.

This is a great memoir. I feel such sadness for those of you out there who feel uncomfortable with presenting yourself as is. Some of the panels talked about not staying up for yourself because you didn't want to seem rude. Ugh! That speaks to me. Please all know #YouAreSafeWithMe and please #StandUp
