Female leads so powerful they turn you gay

AAAHHH FUCK ME THIS IS SO COOOL! I was drawn in by the baller art, but hot diggity damnnnn- the world building and the character writing! Female lead such an understated badass, but then there are these moments where the world seems to stand still from her physical strength, and strength of character. Such a cool use of sci fi! Sole survivors of a world ending catastrophe. Nuanced exploration of gender, intersex, and loss- but that’s not all it’s about. It’s a glorious ride eve

This might be my favorite female lead of all time. So not-caught-up in pettiness, so self-examining, so level headed. Writing is raw and vulnerable, and really captures the ever-shifting complexities of family, relationships, mental health and growing up. Top notch writing

This manhua turned me gay and prompted me to join the basketball team in high school. It’s incredibly funny and adorable and you fall in love with all of the characters in it. I have such a huge crush on the tall girl in this one (•_•)

Also v funny :)

Wow. I loooooove this author. She writes very real feeling characters and situations, full of sadness, akwardness and hope. Middle school girl A is about the life of a very introverted tween with a poor home life, struggling to make connections in the world. You WILL care about and relate to her a lot, and it is a very cute style despite the underlying darkness of her situation. Author of “The Kids Are All Right”

10/10 realness, compassion
