This One Summer by Mariko Tamaki
2.75
reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The art was beautiful.  The story itself left a lot to be desired. I think I would have found the story more compelling if we had more of a point of view from the other female characters, but this was mainly from one certain character that I just wasn't super attached to.
