Author and illustrator Siobhan Gallagher's humorous and heartfelt graphic memoir details her journey from being anxious and unhappy to learning to love herself as she is.
I'm proud of the person I've become because I fought to become her. At the age of 30, Siobhan Gallagher looks back on her teenage self: struggling with anxiety and diet culture, desperate to become a beautiful, savvy, and slim adult. As an actual adult, she realizes she hasn't turned out the way she'd imagined, but through the hard work of self-reflection-cut with plenty of humor-Gallagher brings readers along on her journey to self-acceptance and self-love.
Through witty comics and striking illustrations, Full of Myself is a highly relatable story of the awkward, imperfect, and hilariously honest teenage best friend readers will wish they had had-and the awkward, imperfect, and hilariously honest woman she becomes.
