This is a memoir about a year in the life of the author when their mother was diagnosed with a “not long to live” cancer. They also came out as trans to their family. Also all the characters in this book are drawn as birds for some reason. I’m not usually great with “my mom had cancer and died” stories (my mom had cancer and died, it’s a me thing) and I’ve had a hard time with graphic memoirs from younger people in the past. However, this one was quite good, everyone’s managing their own feelings and trying to do it together in a way that is empathetic to the fact that not everyone feels (or shares) their feelings in the same way.
