“
Tomboyland
is everything I want an essay collection to be: beautiful, smart, difficult, honest, hopeful, and haunting... Melissa Faliveno has written a gorgeously complex

that is destined to be passed urgently from hand to hand, an anthem sung by all the misfits in those vast places who have not yet seen themselves written.
