So you watched I Saw the TV Glow
& now you're having some complicated feelings about gender. Books full of characters who come to terms with themselves. Recs welcome, per usual.

WOW. you are downright amazing. (Iāll never stop thinking about this movie ever til the end of eternity)
I wish I could get the entire movie tattooed on my heart. It means so, so much to me and I'm thrilled that it means so much to others too.
ohhh if only š„ŗš„ŗ it really does! a seminar on queering identity in film and tv originally brought it to my attention. as the end credits rolled, I kept staring at the screen, and kept staring and staring, not speaking. the morning after, I wrote about it in my creative writing seminar. in the afternoon, I talked to my therapist about it. etc etc and so forth. this. damn. movie.
It really is that movie! I'm so glad that seminar brought it your attention and it had such a profound effect on you. š«
