miayukino's review against another edition
informative
reflective
slow-paced
3.5
Incredibly extensively researched but I feel as though the medium of graphic novelization and non-omniscient storytelling made a lot of the information hard to follow. I feel as though it could have been more concise. It seemed to attempt to straddle being both a comprehensive secondary source and a personalized bio and that was tough for me to follow. I was looking for a bit more personal window into her as a person and less of a play by play of her collaborative relationships; I was also hoping they’d delve into her queer relationships but that was not very present at all (especially for a book that is, in my opinion, well-researched and versed in the true and false rumors of her life). I think this style is not exactly for me and that’s okay. If you want a comprehensive history of her interpersonal interactions then I think this is a great book for you!
