Unveiling Hidden Truths: How Stephanie Stalvey’s "Everything in Color" Transforms the Love Story Genre
This is the same journey that Stephanie Stalvey presents in her debut graphic memoir, Everything in Color: A Love Story (23rd St; April 2026). Stalvey and I grew up in similar strains of evangelicalism, both of us learning at a young age that we were sinners who deserved to spend eternity in hell.
The reasons people cite for leaving evangelicalism are numerous: its teachings against homosexuality, embedded patriarchy and lack of leadership options for women, the damaging effects of purity culture. All of these issues appear in Stalvey’s book, some granted greater focus than others.
