Perfect Example by John Porcellino

I’ve becoming quite a fan of Porcellino’s, I like his honest self assessment, sometimes awkward, unafraid to show even the thinking he finds embarrassing or strange, but without false humility or excessive display.
I like the art, it suits the tone and the stories I find.
I like the stories he chooses to tell, the observations, the details he notices, and how he tells them.

I often don’t connect with coming-of-age stories because I can’t relate to the experiences, this one was the first in a long time I really liked. A lot of the experiences, the thoughts, the feelings he describes were familiar

Kinda boring, characters hard to distinguish from one another. 

Seemed aimless and little linkage between stories. 
Not happy, not sad just meh. 
Not my cup of tea.

the only reason I read this book was because in my film and novel class, we got a new assignment today where we had to a graphic Novel by next Wednesday. this book took me 20 minutes to read. it was horrible.
