A feminist manifesto in graphic novel form that denounces the discrimination against and unfairness felt by women from childhood to adulthood. Illustrated in a strikingly minimalist style with images of girls with varied body types and personalities, invites teenagers to question the sexism that surrounds us, in ways that are obvious and hidden, simple and complex. The book's beginnings as a fanzine shine through in its honesty and directness, confronting the inequalities faced by young women, everyday. And it ends with a line of hope, that with solidarity, girls will hurt less, as they hold each other up with support and encouragement.

Lucile de Pesloüan began to publish fanzines in 2012, which were distributed by alternative media as well as traditional bookshops. Her writing is intimate, direct, poetic, and committed. What Makes Girls Sick and Tired is her first book. She lives in Montreal, Quebec.Darling, Geneviève: - Geneviève Darling's illustrations' core topics are softness, connectedness, and the reclamation of space. Her work tries to challenge heteronormativity and make queer relationships between women more visible. What Makes Girls Sick and Tired is her first book. She lives in Montreal, Quebec.
