La estrella es solo porque el dibujo me gusto.
Tres cosas horribles de esta novela gráfica: la protagonista, el hecho de que no pasa NADA, los temas más complicados no se tratan de manera correcta.

love the vibes

A story of one summer staying at a cottage by the beach. it is about a mother living with grief, a father living with a grieving wife, a daughter on the cusp of womanhood, and a daughter's friends dealing with the drama that comes with adolescence. not the most enthralling thing you'll read this year, but it provides a good portrait of childhood in retrospect
