After reading the graphic novel, I knew I had to read the original novel, and I was not disappointed. This is a powerful story with a great message that was told abstractly and through short vignettes. What I loved about this novel was how well fleshed out Melinda was. You truly felt for her, and she felt real, like an extension of the author and what she went through. My only real issue was the writing, which at times felt too abstract and removed from the narrative. Nevertheless, this is an important and engaging book that more than deserves all the accolades it’s received.
