nerdyreferencelibrarian89 's review for:
This was a cute combination of travel log, teen memoir, and graphic novel.
The author was a teen when she wrote the book, which I think gives some unique insight into the experiences she describes. I think it also makes this a book that another teen could really enjoy as it is told from their perspective.
The author manages to balance some cute and funny moments, with some concrete observations about Japan and Japanese culture. Honestly it made me want to book a trip now! (if only).
If this book was lacking one thing it was better descriptions of some of the everyday things she did with her grandparents. We get glimpses here and there, but the book is mostly focused on her excursions into cities and shrines.
Well worth a read, it is quick, cute, and funny!
