byebrook's review against another edition
3.0
The art in this book is so well done - really interesting cartoony style. The story was a bit confusing at times and the structure, while different and interesting, did amplify this sense of confusion. Once I got my footing it was okay, though I can’t say I really like the Corrigan family at all - they kind of all suck in their own ways. Except Amy, she seemed pretty okay. It is also just such a depressing read - you finish it feeling just as bad, if not worse, then when you started it - which, I acknowledge, is exactly what Ware is going for: this isn’t a happy story of a happy life. It’s the depressing story of a broken family tree that weaves throughout time.
