Title: Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic
Author: Alison Bechdel
Would you recommend this book? Yes, it's not a big time commitment, but was a tiny bit pretentious.

Title:Being Jazz
Author:Jazz Jennings
Would you recommend this book? YES! This was a fast read. I liked it more than I thought I would, as I usually don't read memoirs of very young people. Jazz has packed a lot of living into her life, and I really enjoyed hearing about all of interests, from drama to sports, her successes, and her family dynamics. She wrote a heartfelt vulnerable description of her inner knowing of her gender, transphobia, of course, her family support, and her expressions as her gender as she grew. The book was so much vibrant as she gives you such insight into her whole rich life!

Title: Messy Roots: A Graphic Memoir of a Wuhanese American
Author: Laura Gao
Would you recommend this book? Yes. It is a coming of age, immigrant, societal taboos of Chinese Covid anxiety story as well as a story of a girl trying to figure out why girls make her heart flutter.
