I did not go into this one expecting to cry, but it absolutely moved me to tears to see technology used to help make hospital visits a little less scary and elderly folks feel a little less alone. Addie and Mateo are the stars of the show, and I enjoyed their friendship so much that I didn't mind that the supporting cast could use a little boost. The story is well written and compelling, and it was also really neat how the artist conveyed digital art and traditional art within a graphic novel.
This book contains mentions of addiction, grief/loss, and several scenes take place in a hospital, so take care of yourself when reading.
