This was an interesting & informative look into gender and what it means to different individuals. Ewing conducted a series of interviews asking about people's genders in a search for understanding of their own & came to the conclusion that... it's complicated. So many factors play into it & there are so many ways to express yourself outside the binary. I appreciated the comic style and how the interviews were organized to create a cohesive theme.
Not gonna lie, I was worried there for a while! This book kept the tension, but it was also chock full of tender moments, embracing diversity, potential, and protective power. The final race had me cheering, the ending had me happy crying. The magic elements were wound so effortlessly into the story the author and artist wanted to tell. Highly recommend. Do NOT miss the scrap book moments at the end, tucked after the important creator's notes.
Pretty sure Team Enbious is a play on Enby.
Non Binary team of magic broom flying racers. I LOVE. 😍
In this fabulous graphic memoir, Pedro Martín recounts the time when he was 12 and his entire family—including 8 siblings—travelled in a motorhome from California to the Mexican state of Jalisco in order to bring his grandfather home to live with them. Adventures, misadventures, and poignant scenes too. I loved it. #MiddleGrade #comics for all ages.
THAT goes on the list of favourites of the year. Holy FUCK what an achievement. I will somewhat shamefacedly admit this is my first N.K. Jemisin, but it certainly makes me want to pick up her novels! And the art, oh my goodness, I will also be looking for more graphic novels illustrated by Jamal Campbell. 1/?
