reflective tense slow-paced

4.5

The art is stunning. The darkest parts of the story are presented as plainly as they must have felt - a fact of life, undramatized do as to respect both intent and impact on others.

The art is beautiful in this graphic memoir and the story is so poignant. It explores mental health, living between two cultures, friendship, growing up and becoming your authentic self.

A memoir that was heavier than I expected. Touches on lots of topics so check trigger/content warnings.

challenging dark emotional hopeful sad tense medium-paced

Para alguém que tem tentado ler livros mais diversos este foi um bom começo.

Este coming of age graphic deixe-nos a meio de uma história com muitos altos e baixos de alguém que tenta o seu melhor mas que ainda comete erros, gostava de ter aprofundado mais algumas das relações mas acredito que esse fosse o objetivo.
