Stargazing
by Jen Wang
Jen Wang created a whimsical story that tackled many topics such as having a brain tumor as a child, which was from her own experience. I really loved Moon and Christine's friendship and how it blossomed. Moon was quickly my favorite character. She's Buddist and vegetarian who lives with her single mother and they're trying to make ends meet. Christine is also dealing with having strict parents who have rules about her doing well in school and not painting her nails, which is something that really affects her.
The illustrations were colorful and I enjoyed the contrast of child drawings/sketches and comic strips. This was such a great story about the stars and I wish it would've been longer & the star concept be touched on more. But overall, it was a cute story.
If you like K-Pop or want a coming of age graphic novel, I highly recommend this title!
