jess_mango's review against another edition
4.0
A quick graphic novel about a mom and her two kids taking a trip to a caravan park on the British coast. The monotony of the everyday, long car rides, and the boredom of a bleak seaside are perfectly rendered in this book. Not much happens, but really, how much really happens on run-of-the-mill family getaways.

It captures the out of time feeling of being on summer vacation.

the art, and use of colour was breathtaking. but the lack of story wasn't my cup of tea. usually I'm a fan of slice of life type stuff but the story/engagement fell a little flat for me.
the little englishisms really made me smile.
give it a go, a very quick read.
