There’s a brother and a sister, and again the main perspective is that of the older sister, but in this case it’s the dad who is struggling with a health problem-clinical depression, brought on by the death of his wife. I found the story satisfying, the art style simple but appealing, and the characters pleasant to spend time with.īrenna Thrummler’s Sheets is a different kind of story.
They make friends, with human residents and with others, and the internal and external struggles ramp up as things change, finally intersecting on Día de los Muertos. The story is told from the older sister’s point of view, as she struggles externally with life in a new, bewildering place, and also struggles internally with her younger sister’s cystic fobrosis, with all the complications that presents to her life. Raina Telgemeier’s Ghosts is about a pair of sisters who move to a town with a notable ghost population. Basically, I stumbled onto them at the library while waiting for my son to pick out some comics, and figured I’d give them a shot, as a contrast to the more challenging reading I’ve got on the go at the moment. I recently read a couple of comics aimed at younger readers. Like all the posts in my 2023 reads list, this comes at a lag, meaning I read this a while ago.
