I would have liked to have more about the destruction of the environment than what was touched on in the book, but this book is a memior and therefore only specific to one person.
I really enjoyed that it is in graphic novel form, it makes it a quick read. However, I also feel like the plot jumped around quite a bit, and that an event would just start to be talked about, and then it abruptly switched to something else.
Overall, an incredible read. I'll be recommending it to others for sure.

Susan Meissner did a wonderful job telling the stories of Rosanne and Helen, and I found that this was a hard book to put down. My heart broke over and over for Rosanne and Helen, and the others of this story, but I'm so wonderfully happy that I was able to read it. It's a really powerful story.
