An Age of License by Lucy Knisley

5.0

I'm so glad I waited as long to read this as I ended up doing, though it was unintentional. Everything about it reminded me of my own age of license, what I call my "backpacking through Europe phase": 3 years living in Germany broke, unsure, single, and more or less figuring my shit out. What might have been painful and fresh in 2012 was actually perfectly nostalgic and wonderful in 2017.

Beautifully drawn and touching.

(I still don't have my shit figured out.)
