You'll Never Know, Vol. 1: A Good and Decent Man by Carol Tyler
4.0
I'm a sucker for the autobiomemoirgns.
This is a highly personal gn by C. Tyler about her experiences getting to know her father's history in World War II as a soldier. As such, it's a fun compare/contrast with [b:Maus|15196|Maus I A Survivor's Tale My Father Bleeds History (Maus, #1)|Art Spiegelman|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1327884972s/15196.jpg|1947012] or [b:The Imposter's Daughter|6351980|The Impostor's Daughter A True Memoir|Laurie Sandell|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1344264748s/6351980.jpg|6538560]. Especially because the visual style is very different from either of those offerings. The main drawback here is that it ends before the story really resolves. Publish the next Book, Tyler!
Both of my parents read this and we're all eagerly awaiting the sequel. A really nice demo of the practicality of integrating images into text, but very approachable text-heavy format. Very readable and fascinating. I don't even really esthetically enjoy Tyler's illustration style, but I was sucked in by the story.
