Gorgeous illustrations - I love Kobabe's art style.

 As a cis person, I understood nb/gnc identities on a more technical level, but Genderqueer did a great job describing the emotional side of discovering ones gender/sexual identity. Kobabe used simple, effective languages and images to portray their journey. 

I liked the references to the media Kobabe was consuming while figuring out eir identity. It is so similar to the media I consumed at the time and firmly established the setting of the story (is it still a story if it's a memoir?) It's insane how queer people independently identified and resonated with a lot of the same media at the same time! 

Book bans are stupid - any librarians shelving this in a childrens' section are too - this is firmly YA at the very least, or new adult.
