IN LIMBO addresses dark themes such as depression, violence, bullying, trauma, and attempted suicide. But it’s also about the all-too-familiar themes of coming of age, friendship, and the insecurities of a teenager. I’ve been really appreciative lately of books that address mental health in the Asian-American community, I think it’s extremely important that there is more representation and exposure.

This beautiful memoir follows Deborah/ Jung-Jin on her path of struggling to adapt in new places as a person of colour, to find and express herself, miscommunication and her coping with it.
This book belongs to my most anticipating ones which are releasing this year and it exceeded my expectations. I love how the author portrayed grief, mental illness and other heavy topics. The side characters had their own role and complexity. The art was stunning, and I could not help but catch myself many times just admiring the panels. I still cannot believe this is a debut book and that makes me even more excited for new upcoming releases by them!
Especially because this graphic novel deals with topics that are hard to swallow, I do recommend checking the trigger warnings.
