Like a Boy but Not a Boy

By Andrea Bennett

Inquisitive and expansive, Like a Boy but Not a Boy explores Andrea Bennett's experiences with gender expectations, being a non-binary parent, and the sometimes funny and sometimes difficult task of living in a body.  The book's fourteen essays also delve incisively into the interconnected themes of mental illness, mortality, creative work, class, and bike mechanics (you can learn a lot about yourself by trueing a wheel).

With thoughtfulness and acute observation, Bennett reveals intimate truths about the human experience, whether one is outside the gender binary or not.
