Call me stupid, but I didn't really get the ending.

Thoroughly enjoyed this graphic novel, the art was wonderful and it reminded me of my childhood because I grew up in a small California town (though this primarily takes place in Oakland). A lovely story about life and expectations and regrets. I just wanted more from it, but I still really enjoyed it.

Really solid graphic novel memoir-ish story. Kind and vulnerable too.

The characters and their neuroticism pulled me in. I wanted more stories from them.

It was like Ghost World, but I hated the main characters less.

It held my interest and I liked some of the messages the author was alluding to.

At the point of my life where I need to see all the new adults struggling to figure out their lives. This was good.
