I think the storytelling was good at the start of the book and the art okay.

Child sexual assault/abuse right at the start and heavy on the religion - I am not the reader for this.

Beautiful book, devoured it in a single sitting and gave a lot to reflect on for a long time from now

Breathtaking artwork, heartbreaking storyline, delightful and uplifting at one moment, then uncomfortably realistic and "too real to deal" at the next turn. Both very mature and very childish in all the best ways, this shows what first love, dealing with what morals and religion you want to lead your life with, and growing up is really like with visceral images and simple, sad prose.

چقدر خوب بود این کتاب. یادم آورد آدمها چطور عاشق میشن چطور عادت می‌کنند چطور فراموش می‌کنند و دست آخر چطور بزرگ میشن.
هر صفحه اش هر نقاشی اش چقدر حرف زد با من. چقدر خاطره رو ورق زد با من.
دلم میخواست تموم نمیشد، همینجور نقاشی می‌کشید و می‌رفت...
