A review by leafblade
My Riot by Rick Spears
4.0
I recieved a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
TRIGGER WARNINGS: eating disorder, puking on purpose (idk the word for that in English, maybe purging?), smoking, minor fistfights
There's a short list of things that made me go "WOMANHOOD!!! I LOVE BEING A WOMAN!!!!!" and this graphic novel just got added to that list. Despite the darker themes it eventually dives into, at its core it's just a celebration of free womanhood, and what we can do when we get together.
The beginning was a bit slow, and I didn't really get how it was going to turn into a riot grrrl story, but that's about all the complaints I have.
