Wash Day Diaries is worthy of the highest rating. brb, off to read it a second time right through ❣️
my 2nd reading:
-the diversity in body types, skin colour, hairstyles & life experiences in the main cast of characters i.e. Cookie, Davene, Nisha & Kim
-
Graphic: Homophobia and Biphobia

The artwork was also fantastic! I loved the use of color to convey mood in each story and the characters were all so bright and lifelike.
Overall this was a wonderful collection of comics and I look forward to reading more of Rowser and Smith's work.

I wouldn't have minded seeing a little more support in certain avenues, specifically when one character is very obviously struggling with severe depression and confides in another character, only to have her experiences totally erased with "you look fine!" and "you don't need medications!" The treatment of that character in general felt clunky to me, but I enjoyed the rest of the book overall. The art was cute and I enjoyed it for the chill, slice-of-life read that it was.
✨ Representation: all four characters are Black, with one of them being Afro-Latinx; one character is bi/pan; brief depiction of an f/f relationship
