These were reimagined Japanese folk tales illustrated in a graphic novel. Most tales were reimagined with happier endings (as far as I know, granted I don’t know the original stories very well). But the happy endings weren’t happy just for the sake of it, they felt earned. I really liked that. The line drawings were able to convey movement and emotion so impressively. It felt cinematic! I didn’t speed through it, I made sure to take my time, and it was worth it. A joy to read.

Every so often I find a book that reminds me why I keep coming back to the middle grade contemporary genre.

CWs: (view spoiler) [ child abuse (fairytale), homophobia, immigration, refugee, religious homophobia, trauma, war (hide spoiler) ] It seems like I rarely get to read books focusing on a mother-son relationship, so this was an absolute treat! Though they come from different languages and cultural backgrounds, Tiên and his mother find connection through fairytales. This is a must-read for anyone who enjoys graphic novels. It pushes the boundary for what illustrations in a graphic novel can be while also delivering a story that resonates emotionally. It’s the most gorgeous graphic novel I’ve ever read!

CWs: (view spoiler) [ anxiety, burnout, depression, insomnia, intrusive thoughts, isolation, mental illness, overthinking, self-doubt (hide spoiler) ] This comic documents a mental health journey, the ups and downs and isolation a lot of us can relate to. Sometimes depression strikes hard, and for no reason at all. “Ups and downs. Clear skies. And then flashes of dark blue. No warnings. No reasons.” Something I’ve learned in my own journey that’s echoed here in this book is that: no matter how dark your world becomes no matter how far you fall no matter how long you’ve lived at rock bottom… there is always a chance for renewal. You just need to give yourself grace and time. “Reroute this sadness into my work so I can give my eyes a break and let the tears run onto paper instead.” “I nurture, so I can blossom.”
