- EXCITING DEBUT AUTHOR: In 2018, Maddy Court made the leap from creating niche lesbian memes on Instagram to writing and distributing a series of zines. Never preachy or dismissive, Court offers advice that is sympathetic and straightforward--it's equal parts refreshing vulnerability and remarkable wisdom.
- GORGEOUS ILLUSTRATION: Kelsey Wroten's art brings the letters to life, immersing the reader in all the joys and disappointments of the contributors who wrote in from all over the world. In addition to the traditional illustrations, each chapter features a paneled mini-comic that speaks to the different themes.
- AMAZING GUEST EXPERTS: Because one queer cannot possible hold all the answers, The Ex-Girlfriend of My Ex-Girlfriend Is My Girlfriend also includes advice from an incredible roster of guest experts. Author and comedian Samantha Irby; musicians JD Samson and Ellen Kempner; and writers and activists Tyler Ford, Kalyn Heffernan, Lola Pellegrino, and Mey Rude all tackle questions on long-distance breakups, jealousy, love triangles, making friends, and more. Perfect for: - Lesbian, bisexual, and queer women and people of marginalized genders with questions about dating, friendship, and life
- Fans of the Ex-Girlfriend zine series and followers of @Xenaworrierprincess
- Fans of Kelsey Wroten's graphic novels and art

Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Court's empathetic and practical lesbian-focused queer relationship guide, illustrated by indie comics darling Wroten began life as a series of self-published zines. This expanded package includes wide-ranging questions on crushes, first dates, long-distance relationships, open relationships, sexual compatibility, jealousy, breakups, friendship, community, coming out, dealing with conflict, and other challenging situations... It's always easier to give advice than to take it, but heartsick or confused daters may find exactly the support they need in this compassionate volume." - Publishers Weekly
"While many of these questions come from people in their twenties, the valuable advice and relatable anecdotes will have YA crossover appeal. LGBTQ+ people of all ages will find stories that resonate deeply, and will appreciate Court's candor and humor throughout.--Library Journal
