As you may be able to tell from the cover, the author has a really interesting art style, relying on a few colours and a lot of these more abstract lines or eyes or knives to represent their epilepsy. The story is based on their own personal experiences and this book doesn’t shy away from the dark moments (including some suicidal thoughts) but I really appreciated having this perspective on something I know very little about.
