Gender Queer: A Memoir
by Maia Kobabe

book cover


Based on branding, I expected this to be a written novel as opposed to a graphic novel. However, I was still overall pleased with the content until the end, where there some harmful notions portrayed about science and about nonbinary identities being internalized misogyny. This fundamentally contrasts what the LGBTQ+ community presents, and many including myself feel like this section takes steps back on the progressive front. Most people dislike this book for the queer topics and nudity, but all my reservations surround safe and accurate representation. At the end of the day, it is an okay book.

I like that the girl is really active and really sweet. It was a good reminder that not all families look the same.
