HARVEY AWARD WINNER The heart-rending autobiographical manga that's taken the internet by storm! My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness is an honest and heartfelt look at one young woman's exploration of her sexuality, mental well-being, and growing up in our modern age. Told using expressive artwork that invokes both laughter and tears, this moving and highly entertaining single volume depicts not only the artist's burgeoning sexuality, but many other personal aspects of her life that will resonate with readers.
Like others, she touched on things that I deal with on a daily basis, lack of motivation, eagerness to win parents approval, to be liked, the glittering strength of coming out of depression then bottoming out again, ect.. It was refreshing, and a bit inspiring, to read something so open and honest in the best book format in the world.
I am totally biased on that last comment, lol.
I can appreciate the strength it took in detailing intimate parts of her life for the sake of getting published and living out her dream as a mangaka. The art is simple with a pink and white aesthetic adding to uniqueness of a manga memoir, perfection for the material and vibe of the story.
I read this book online, in one night, and I plan to purchase a physical copy and the sequels.
