520    Ignatz Award winner Tillie Walden's powerful graphic 
       memoir captures what it's like to come of age, come out, 
       and come to terms with leaving behind everything you used 
       to know. It was the same every morning. Wake up, grab the 
       ice skates, and head to the rink while the world was still
       dark. Weekends were spent in glitter and tights at 
       competitions. Perform. Smile. And do it again. She was 
       good. She won. And she hated it. For ten years, figure 
       skating was Tillie Walden's life. She woke before dawn for
       morning lessons, went straight to group practice after 
       school, and spent weekends competing at ice rinks across 
       the state. Skating was a central piece of her identity, 
       her safe haven from the stress of school, bullies, and 
       family. But as she switched schools, got into art, and 
       fell in love with her first girlfriend, she began to 
       question how the close-minded world of figure skating fit 
       in with the rest of her life, and whether all the work was
       worth it given the reality: that she, and her friends on 
       the team, were nowhere close to Olympic hopefuls. The more
       Tillie thought about it, the more Tillie realized she'd 
       outgrown her passion--and she finally needed to find her 
       own voice.
