Devo admitir que pensei que ia gostar mais deste graphic novel do que realmente gostei ....

Numa palavra este livro é juvenil e apesar de  costumar gostar de livros em que o coming of age tem um backdrop da relação entre adultos neste caso a personagem principal era demasiado irritante para isso teria preferido seguir a melhor amiga dela que no esquema geral das coisas era mais self awakere e no final do dia uma melhor pessoa

It was a quick and easy read, and I kept waiting to really see what the Takeaway was from this summer. But it seems like it was really just a snapshot out of this person‘s life where they felt like they really had gone through some hard things. Which I definitely understand and it’s definitely interesting, but doesn’t necessarily need to be made into a book if that makes sense. It didn’t seem to have this ending that really highlighted what the purpose was for making this a book but it was very interesting and I enjoyed following along with the story.

Though nothing much happened, the social drama and storytelling was very compelling. It was beautiful and real. Left me feeling both a sense of love and sadness.

I genuinely didn’t expect this to be a deeply sorrowful story. This coming of age, young adult graphic novel tackles two teenage girls spending a life-changing summer together. The art style is very beautiful and compliments the heartwrenching yet equally hopeful story that the writers were trying to tell.
