Mansfield and Me: A Graphic Memoir by Sarah Laing

4.0

I thought this was so beautiful, and so much of the teenage move to Wellington/local scenery/wistful small town nz teenager felt so genuine and relatable to me. I also love reading graphic novels about parenthood. The Katherine Mansfield sections totally intrigued me too.

I think my fave thing about this book was the art, I want so many of the bigger illustrations as framed prints!

Reason it's not a 5 is because I feel like the two storylines could have been woven together a bit more smoothly or organically or something?
