I Am Young by M. Dean

3.0

The art was really cute. I enjoyed the musical tie ins. I thought Miriam and George’s love story was nice. The author just tried to fit too many short story lines into this book. I would have cut a couple out or focused solely on Miriam and George. I also don’t know if I truly know what this book is about. It could be making commentary on the the 1960s or the way music affects our lives but the message and meaning was kind of lost on me. I feel a bit disappointed because I built this up so much in my head. But not every graphic novel is going to be AMAZING. It definitely kept me turning the pages.
