Notes from a Sickbed by Tessa Brunton

I liked the comic style and some of the vignettes - I think I just went in with the expectation of a narrative whereas this was more of a series of vignettes that are connected by the author’s illness. Some really interesting insights and explorations but the structure overall didn’t work for me as well as other graphic novels/comics have.

Very insightful memoir about having ME or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. It did feel a bit incomplete but also was incredibly relatable as a chronically ill person.
