I've never read, nor thought about reading Jane Eyre, but I am loving this genderqueer retelling sans any context whatsoever.

I dip my brush into the surrounding light and begin to paint, erasing the cold blackness bit by bit, replacing it with warm, bright light. I get all the way to the far edge, until there‘s only a sliver of black remaining—
And I reach up with my brush and paint it white.

pickThis book is an amazing resource; I‘m so glad it exists. My heart hurts for those individuals who have attempted binding with ace bandages or duct tape (!!). Hopefully the information contained in this slim graphic novel will prevent the injuries that can be caused by binding unsafely.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Cute story about finding yourself and your gender presentation.
Dawn discovers a love letter written between two women dating from the 1950s in a book she‘s rebinding and follows the mystery of who they are and what happened to them. What enfolds ends up mirroring her life in unexpected ways.
Predictable, but a good story and what I needed for the moment.

pickI loved this book. Kelly explored gender and sexuality and the weight of history without losing the all-too-important human connections that made this a great novel.
Dawn is a queer, gender fluid person in a relationship with another person exploring their own gender identity in 2001 NYC. When Dawn finds a lesbian paperback cover from the 1950s with a love note on it, she begins a journey into queer history that clears her artistic block.
