Un diario personal que resigue el crecimiento y madurez de Noelle como persona y artista, con momento muy duros y bien llevados. Al acabar dan ganas de abrazarla. (

More of an art book/blog compilation/scrapbook thing than a memoir. A memoir requires reflecting on the past with a perspective you didn't have at the time, and weaving threads together and forming them into a narrative. This is just a bunch of sketches drawn in the heat of the moment, and year-end reflections that are word-for-word what Stevenson wrote at the time.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the heat-of-the-moment comics about feelings. Stevenson is very good at them. But if you're going into this expecting a cohesive story or, like, any details whatsoever (about his creative process, or what it was like to work on his projects day to day, or even his coming out), you're going to be disappointed.

There's a lot of good stuff in here, and I'm not sure how I feel about it, much as I'm not sure how I feel about the types of graphic novel memoir that go into all the details -- there's a balance, and this one falls on the vague side. I think that's a strength, because it allows the reader to determine what they will take away and to see themselves in the work. It didn't make me think I knew the creator any better at the ending, but it was kind of cool to see that the fire/hole in the chest thing isn't just me, and I loved the art. Cool. (

GORGEOUS BOOK. This is simply a gorgeous book from start to finish. Noelle Stevenson may be best known as the showrunner for She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. But I came to know of their work through Lumberjanes. It is told in double reflective mode. Not only a memoir, but a collection of Noelle's End of the Year Tumblr posts. The time period covered is Noelle's emergence as a powerhouse artist and creator. They also share how they wrestled with their sexuality. One note is that the author bio does not use their current pronoun they. Given their young age, I fully expect another memoir in due time. (
