I loved how it would go back and forth between color and black and white. I also really connected with the protagonist, and I feel like this is an accurate portrayal of mental illness and depression. I just wasn't a huge fan of the ending, I thought it was so confusing and super abrupt.

I thought it started so strong, I picked this up from my library and I had no idea what this book was about, but the cover and synopsis intrigued me. I thought it started so strong, I loved the artwork and the colors and was immediately invested. But then, most of this story is in black and white, and it’s not really a typical story where we follow characters and their stories — it’s short brief comics about funny moments between characters. But some of the jokes fell so flat for me and I didn’t think they were that funny? I liked the comics where the grandma was trying to explain things from the previous world to her granddaughter the most, but otherwise I thought some of these were kind of annoying haha. I guess I just went into this with the wrong expectations. ...more
