I enjoyed this a lot! great story

I think I didn't quite vibe with the art - I LOVE DuVall's work but I'm not quite sure I vibe with it in longform comic form? the colouring style emphasised that I think, I prefer limited palette for this kind of style. (I have very specific tastes for graphic novel art tho - and I appreciate just how much work goes into it!!!!)

I loved all the diversity in this graphic novel! The depiction of sign language is so cool to see in the illustrations.

Content warnings: racism, hate crime, forced institutionalization, bullying, and violence.
