I got this as a gift and it is a great little comic about the author coming to terms with being and feeling Nonbinary and asking people to use their pronouns, and like everything Melanie Gillman does it looks gorgeous. The book design is also cool because the cover has a flap that splits down the middle.

Wow. Thank you, Mx. Gillman. I wish I could tell my story half as eloquently as you did. I appreciate you more than I can say!

An exploration of nonbinary gender experience that is beautiful both emotionally and artistically. Several times, I felt like Gillman had reached directly into mine and my spouse's life and just pulled our experiences into the world. Knowing that these are, in fact, Gillman's own experiences helped me feel that much less alone. A powerful read for anyone who is nonbinary or who's trying to understand what nonbinary is all about. Be prepared to cry a little.

YES!! I am so happy I read this and bought it. It is quite relatable; I often question myself, struggle to correct people even though it hurts and have wondered about presentation. The art is amazing too.

Now my go-to visual reference for conveying my experience of being non-binary.

This is a super cute short booklet an example of the non-binary experience which is both highly relatable for queer people, and also highly accessible for friends and allies.

I was able to borrow this zine from a friend, and I'm so glad I did! This zine was so important, and I need to read Melanie's graphic novel soon.
