This one’s a little complicated for me. There’s parts of this book I loved. And then there’s parts that really didn’t make me feel good. It took me a long time to get through this book- teens tackle some heavy stuff in their books, huh?
Cool illustrations. Love a talking dog companion. WAY too big a concept to try to execute in a 200 page graphic novel.

“When the last person who knew you forgets your name, it’s like you never really existed in the first place. It’s like you were never really there. Poof, gone. I figure that I’ll spread my name far and wide, considering how few people are left. I’ll offer it to anyone who walks through that door, if they’re willing to listen. If they’re willing to remember me.” (pg 7)
