A review by foggy_rosamund
Lost Soul, Be at Peace by Maggie Thrash

3.0

This is set shortly after the events of Honor Girl, but works perfectly as a stand-alone. Maggie is in her second-last year of school, and her grades are dropping rapidly. She doesn't care about anything, and the only things that bring her any joy are her dance troupe and her cat Tommi. Her father works as a judge, and the family live in a huge mansion, but Maggie, despite being afforded many opportunities, is lonely and ignored, and doesn't get any affection or attention from her parents. Then her cat goes missing, and she meets a ghost called Tommy... This graphic memoir is cleverly written, well-observed, and a very interesting insight into a culture of hunting and privilege that is very foreign to me. However, like in Honor Girl, I feel that Thrash's simplistic drawings let her down.
