slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Love the humour. Love the narrative. Love the art.
I'm always in awe about how a combination of seemingly random things can come together to create something so beautiful. Absolutely adore that there was no forced explanation or plot twist. So excited that there were a few magical, surreal elements mixed in. Sometimes we forget that the most simple and basic things can be incredible too. But I think most of all, it just felt so effortless - to read, consume and devour. And it's relaxing to have a book like that every now and then.

Recommended if you dig expertly drawn, mellow, slice-of-life comics. I wished that there was a little more meat to it, but I enjoyed (and very much related to) the depiction of family life.

A very familiar and very simple story about a city dwelling family going glamping (camping but with real beds and more expensive). The black and white drawings are simple and peaceful in contrast to the unfamiliarity and anxiousness involved. Conversation flowed well and was very natural. Humour was spot on too.
