From the Roots Up by Tasha Spillett
5.0
A fantastic follow up to the first volume.
This focuses more on Dez. We see them living in the aftermath of their grandmother's death, now forced to live in a group home. At the core of this volume is their struggle with their identity and expressing their identity when colonial constructs of gender and sexuality are so often forced on us. It's truly a beautiful story, and I just loved it. It's about loving our relatives for exactly who they are, and focusing on healing each other and coming together.
I hope there's more!
