dark emotional informative reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

I loved the innovative blend of memoir, storytelling, and folktales! The writing here was good, but further elevated by great artwork and an interesting structure. I did find it a bit long and repetitive, but on the whole this was incredibly strong. It covers some heavy topics but in a very personal way that renders it moving. I enjoyed it and would recommend for people who like non traditional memoirs.
