I've been on a bit if a graphic novel binge and so decided to give this a go without knowing anything about it other than it was a graphic novel! It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but it was still interesting. I can't say the story was my usual interest but I thought the depiction of childhood trauma and teenage conflict really beautifully done and I can appreciate the significance of a story such as this. I absolutely loved the artwork though and the way everything is set out and how different elements are depicted is very creative and really enhances the story being told. I can't say it was my favourite graphic novel purely because it's not really my genre but I can see why so many people have loved this and I definitely think it's worth a read if personal struggles especially with religion is something that sparks you're interest.
