This is the kind of the book I want to own, to highlight and scribble in, to dog-ear and sticky tab, so when I'm feeling lost or frustrated or angry or alone, I have a roadmap not just to kind and hopeful advice, but a reminder of how that advice has touched and taught me, of who I wanted to be when I read it last. (  ) slimikin | May 28, 2022 | Featuring disarming illustrations by Saul Freedman-Lawson, Special Topics in Being a Human elaborates on “Asking Bear”’s premise: a gentle, witty, and insightful book of practical advice for the modern age. It offers Dad advice and Jewish bubbe wisdom, all filtered through a queer lens, to help you navigate some of the complexities of life—from how to make big decisions or make a good apology, to how to get someone’s new name and pronouns right as quickly as possible, to how to gracefully navigate a breakup. With warmth and candor, Special Topics in Being a Human calls out social inequities and injustices in traditional advice-giving, validates your feelings, asks a lot of questions, and tries to help you be your best possible self with kindness, compassion, and humor." www.amazon.com CDJLibrary | Jan 28, 2022 | geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
