Occulted by Ryan Estrada, Amy Rose

4.0
Occulted is first and foremost about abuse. It's a horrifying account of belittlement and how people can so easily fall prey to a corrupt power structure. I sped through this graphic novel, shedding a few tears at the portrayal of Amy's childhood and more than a few times wanting to reach through the pages to protect her.
The art style complimented the story in a really wonderful way, with the simplicity of the characters and finer details where it counted most.
Over all I really enjoyed this graphic memoir, though I would have preferred a bit more length with a more rounded ending.
