The contest was judged by Stephen Graham Jones, author of \u003cem\u003eMongrels\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eAfter the People Lights Have Gone Off\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Last Final Girl\u003c\/em\u003e, and several other books. Stephen said \"Life moves pretty fast in the here and now, and 'I Am Me' gets it on the page with enough terror and comedy and longing that we can't help but see ourselves there. It's a scary, twisted reflection, but it's a lot more helpful than the nice easy lies we usually get told.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Kirkpatrick, Rachel Lyon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 194238713X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781942387138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Conium Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.31d","brand":"Matthew Kirkpatrick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057444450559,"sku":"9781942387138","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6ab653ed-8efe-4ab2-bf33-339854691a3f.jpg?v=1685047014","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-conium-review-matthew-kirkpatrick-9781942387138","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
