A review by livcanread_
Are You Listening? by Tillie Walden

emotional sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character

3.75

one of my favorite coming out scenes ever :) funny and simple but also tender and heart-wrenching “was that the first time you told anyone? . . . you feel ok?”
needless to say i really loved bea and lou’s relationship and the way they slowly opened up to each other and truly saw and understood one another. the art is also spectacular and worked really well with the atmosphere of the book + also specific scenes. the pacing was maybe a little off for me, but i have very little experience in the magical realism genre and graphic novels, and to me this book was more about bea and lou anyway.
