The art is stunning, and the art direction, with the black page edges for night and purple for dusk were so thoughtful. The dialogue is realistic, funny and occasionally a bit brutal. Love the self contained aspect . . . just the time they were in NYC, we have to imagine what life is like when they get home. The more I think about it, the more I like it . . . talked myself from a 4 to a 4.5.
