I thought this was a very interesting memoir it is very different from most. It is part scrapbook, diary, and comic book. It was enjoyable in its non traditionalness. It was so personal and the fact that it was not just a written book made it seem like it was so much more personal to her than a book. It seemed touched, she definitely put herself into the memoirs.
The comics themselves told a story but, I did not like the comics that much. The art was not very good at all it reminded me of something I would have done in high school. Usually I would try to work past bad art id a good story emerges but, the strip was very scattered busy the text was small handwritten and hard to read. It would have taken some kind of crazy concentration to be able to focus on the comic strip and be able to understand what was going on. So with the overall busyness and the bad art it was very difficult for me to appreciate the comic strips in this memoir.
I can definitely appreciate this memoir as personal and very non traditional, but as a comic book I didn't really like it to much. The art work was very poor and very hard to follow.
