pickExcellent graphic non-fiction about “comfort women“ (Japanese euphemism for “prostitute“ which refers to the victims of Japanese military sexual slavery during WW2)
Beautifully illustrated, this book offers the moving testimony of a comfort woman. The author also shares her thoughts, she draws herself during the interviews, during her research, which adds value, and also shows how politically this issue is still unresolved.
pickAn excellent book that gives some of the biggest minority heroes a chance to tell their stories. They did a great job of choosing characters that casual fans would be aware of, but not particularly knowledgeable of, and providing some alternate views of major DC and world events. More of an illustrated novel, since it is VERY wordy, and the art does not move the story forward at all, but once you get starting, it's hard to put down
pickThis was a cute little graphic. Had a lot of “Yup, that's me” moments :) ❤️📚❤️

It‘s finally here! Preorder came early yesterday!!
pickThis book was SO much fun. If you‘re a teacher, journaler, artist, writer, or looking for any interdisciplinary course content, this is the book. She has her students drawing, reading, writing, remembering poems and creating their own books in composition books. It‘s just wonderful!
so-so2.5/5⭐ Eh. A quick, mispell-laden adventure through friendship and life. It felt cursory and didn't really resonate with me. #buzzwordathon
I checked this series out from the graphic novel section of the library today. Honestly, I mostly just chose it because the library had the entire series (3 books) available to check out in one go. I got them for my 16 year old son. I think, if I hit on the right books or the right genre, then he‘ll end up being a reader. I‘ve just been striking out on most of the ones I‘ve chosen for him so far. However, today I caught him in his room reading! ⬇️
pickAnd just like that, I‘m caught up again.
Larry‘s cousin comes to visit and brings something unexpected with him. It goes about as well as you‘d expect. Gross, violent, and vibrantly illustrated.
pickA biopic about Gert? What could possibly go wrong? Once again, delightfully disgusting and fluffing marvelous.
