This is a very important graphic memoir of a woman's two years working in the oil field in Northern Alberta. Around the time she was there, topics like mental health, sexual assault, environmental damage to Indigenous lands, etc. weren't being talked about so I'm glad to have a little peek into what it was really like for her there and then. The illustration and text were also easy to read and I got through it quickly once I started it even though it looks like a hefty book.

This book is really good and really well done and really important. It also talks a lot about misogyny, sexul assault, rape, and rape culture.
