My Lesbian Experience With Loneliness Kindle & comiXology

Despite the attention-grabbing title and cover artwork, this is a comic which focuses primarily on highly relatable feelings of loneliness rather than gratuitous scenes of lesbian fun. It's a gritty, awkward tale steeped in uncomfortable truths about growing up in the modern world. The artist lays every single part of herself bare to share her experiences with the reader, depicting a world which will make onlookers wince and smile bitterly in equal measure.Please don't write it off as something only LGBTQ+ readers can enjoy, even though it's wonderful to see more serious material of that nature making it across to the UK. Whatever your personal preferences, this book takes a raw, intimate look at depression and is a valuable read for anyone who has ever felt that way growing up. The English print edition is well translated and printed in black and white with bold pink highlights, to create a striking standalone volume which will brighten up any (mature) bookshelf.One of my best buys in ages, highly recommended.

Although my struggles are nowhere near as bad as the author's experiences, there were parts of this story that really struck a chord with me. I could not recommend this story enough.As an autobiographical work, My Lesbian Experience With Loneliness is a difficult but rewarding read. Touching upon sexuality, loneliness, isolation, self-hatred, eating disorders and self harm, this is the struggle of a woman coming to terms with what she wants out of her life compared to the weight of expectations other people have of her. Although her life is still not perfect at the end of the novel, you can tell how much she has grown and learnt that it's okay to be her own person. That's something we should all keep in mind.

I know this is supposed to be an autobiography but it just has some harmful really messed up stuff in it. I had to stop when I got to the section where she was talking about fantasizing about her mom breast feeding her????? What the heck? Nope, I’m out. I honestly can’t believe I read that section with my own two eyes and that it exists in such a highly rated book. I can’t even donate it because honestly this is the kind of messed up thing that makes society think us gays are perverts when we are really just normal people with a few outliers just like the straights.

I got this after watching Dexbonus' review it on her manga podcast. This is book was amazing and I can already say that it probably one of the best things I have ever read. I really sympathised with the character as I have had to go through a lot of the same situations. I love how raw it is. There is no true happy ending, instead there is a story of the person trying to develop to become happier.

The autobiography about a young woman who is depressed and trying hard to accept herself.I enjoyed the book,some parts were funny and some were sad i wanted to reach through the book and give the author a hug. I do hope she gets better and that her next book would be a story on how she found love. That said its a Japanese manga and its my first time reading manga on my phone so rhat was an intereting experience. The art was okay, it fits the purpose of the story. Overall it was good

Absolutely amazing! I have read Yuri before but this to me is not Yuri, it's more like an autobiographical manga about her life which led to a lesbian experience. If your looking for Yuri which will titilate you or make you go awww when the couple kiss then this is not for you. Go read Citrus. If you want something deep and interesting about how we live our lives from the perspective of the author then this is for you!

This story is hilarious and heart warming. It's the first manga and only manga I've ever bought, and I reread it quite often. It never fails to make me cry, and it never fails to make me laugh. I don't think you have to be homosexual or depressed to relate to Kabi, I think everyone will be able to take some part of this story, and to keep it in mind when things get tough.I can't possibly recommend this enough!

I've never read manga before but this was strangely compelling. I really enjoyed it and have bought 3 more manga books because of it. The emotional rawness is what hooked me. Excellent.
