 A Sweet, Colorful Story

This is such a touching and beautiful graphic novel. The color use in it is just gorgeous. I feel like the color choices really fit the story being told especially in regards to Blue and Hamal. I love that it went places unexpected and evoked a lot of emotions without turning into a darker story or losing the simplicity. I feel like the simplicity really adds to the sweetness of this story. While sweet, it also evokes a lot of emotion in regards to the ghosts and things learned. I’d definitely recommend checking out content warnings especially if you struggle with topics relating to loss and/or grief. I hope the author writes more in this setting cause I’d love to see more of the other ghosts as well.
