My Last Summer with Cass by Mark Crilley
3.0
This was an interesting graphic novel. It definitely wasn't what I was expecting but in a good way.
The art style was definitely softer than I was expecting but it had a lovely painted feel which of course matched the novel perfectly. I did wish that color had been played with more in regards to the mood of specific scenes but that is definitely just a me thing. I am a bit anal when it comes to color schemes.
The actual story was very good. I really enjoyed that it covered some deeper subjects though I do wish it had taken them a bit deeper in places. The way art was used to depict the girls feelings really worked though. It was a solid story line over all I just wish it had gone a bit deeper in place.
As a whole this was a very good graphic novel about girlhood and friendship. I enjoyed a lot of this story and most of the issues I found were just things that bothered me personally. I think this is a book plenty of other reads will enjoy.
