I don't know why I thought I wouldn't like it. The cover unnerved me. The strength of the hate against her has always felt like a forewarning against young women who take up space.
But I love it, of course. Great writing. Funny, clever, curious.
She came of age as an artist during one of my favorite eras of feminist comic writing. We are so lucky she wants to share anything with us.

It's kind of the story of fawning, self harming by trying to get everyone to not be upset with you.
But it mostly makes me think of Katherine May's, "The Electricity of Every Living Thing", a late diagnosed autism memoir.
I appreciate the honesty of this book, but far more appreciate the quality of the writing.

Whole lotta name dropping.
Fun though. I like the jokes and the painful awkwardness.
The beginning feels a bit like someone trying to prove they really are serious about film. I believe you. Your work speaks for itself.
