mothman64 's review for:
This One Summer
by Mariko Tamaki
everytime i read one of their books im like “ow” and reflect on the pain of growing from our personality flaws. which is fine. you really have to trust the process in this one but the process is “we all believed in stereotypes as a kid and had to fumble around until we realize being sexist ruins our ability to have empathy”. except this book doesn’t show that complete journey, just part of it, but that’s so so so realistic for one single summer!
but yeah even the parts i find unsatisfying or upsetting to read perfectly match the ways life can be unsatisfying and upsetting. they capture certain moods so well it’s insane.
