Summary of this Book...
Craig Thompson's graphic novel memoir tells the process of losing your religion and coming-of-age against the backdrop of childhood trauma.
This type of Book is good for...
Anyone who enjoys coming-of-age memoirs or has lost their religion along life's path.
I especially liked...
The black, white, and blue illustrations that were simple, yet intricate. They play well into the authors description of events. The words were carefully chosen and not cumbersome, which is essential for a graphic novel.
I didn't like...
The book is over 600 pages long, which can be a bit overwhelming if you're looking for a quick read.
When I finished reading this Book I wanted to...
Check out the rest of Craig Thompson's graphic novels.
This Book made me feel...
A sense of understanding and connection with the author.
The author of this Book...
Managed to wrap childhood trauma into a story in such a way that allowed it to be known without being the forefront subject matter of the book.
I recommend this Book because...
It demonstrates subtle aggression.
