This is a beautiful book. Very powerful. I love the way AJ mixes the history with the story of Kristen.

I was skeptical of intertwining a personal story of loss with surfing history but it works. Dungo has a really clear voice and vision that comes through. The intricate artwork is lovely.

This was a very touching read about grief and about surf.
This autobiographical graphic novel by AJ dungo tells the story of Kirsten (AJ’s girlfriend) and her love for surf.
It was a very short read that taught me a lot about surf and even though I didn’t understand throughout the book why surfing made such an important place in the story, I understood how AJ tries to honour his love’s one’s passion as well as diving into it to deal with his own grief.
