I'm So Glad We Had This Time Together: A Memoir by Maurice Vellekoop

challenging dark emotional funny medium-paced

3.25

3.5 rounded down to 3. I enjoyed the graphic novel format of this book but I didn't love the format of the chapters. I felt like a lot of thoughts were left unresolved or just abandoned from page to page. They were all tied up in the end up I flipped back and forth a few times wondering if I missed something.

This book discusses growing up in an immigrant and religious household, going to therapy, coming out and dating, suicidal ideations, depression, death of a friend, and a lot of other heavier topics so I would check content warnings before reading!

Read this if you liked Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic by Alison Bechdel.

Thank you to Panteon for a copy of this book!
