A review by miniaturephilosopher
Julio's Day by Gilbert Hernández

1.0

I wanted to give this a higher rating, but I just didn't enjoy it at all. There was a lot of disturbing imagery (and I'm left wondering why the author made up a fictional disease when this book is otherwise realistic and historically accurate). I didn't connect with any of the characters, and there was so much left unsaid...which is certainly intentional but it didn't work for me.

Many people loved this, so don't discount it based on my review alone.
