Save It for Later: Promises, Parenthood, and the Urgency of Protest by Nate Powell

When I saw Save It For Later up on NetGalley, I couldn't resist requesting it. 2020 was a complete dumpster fire, so I figured I could use a graphic novel that will help me commiserate. Maybe it's because we're still living through the history being made, but this book exhausted me a bit. We're dealing with so much trauma that adding a book that lists it all was a bit of a challenging read. However, the story/graphic form essays were well done and accurate from a more liberal standpoint. I could see this being a helpful book to read as a parent trying to explain the USA's divide.
My biggest issue with this book was the fact that the writing was hard to read at times. I'm hoping that this is because I was reading an ARC of the book, but the words would be pixelated anytime I tried to enlarge the page to read some of the smaller words.
All in all, this was a challenging book that could be useful for future generations. The graphics were well done, but I wish that the writing was easier to read.
