Holy fuck, this is one BIG ass book. We're talking over 1200+ pages. Saying that, this is one of the best comics ever created.

This is a story which takes place through various years and all connecting throughout. Stories of murder, suicide, cheating, child abuse, and more. It keeps going and going with two main characters. Amy and Beth. The story spans 20+ years so with that we get different view points of both characters. Beth teen years to adult, and Amy's child years to teens. The way they eventually overlap and become together is amazing.

What works so so so well here is the gripping storyline of each individual issue. you can read 90% of these issues by itself, no need to read anything else, and still get emotion. This is a heavy book (not just literally) and it really is hard to read all in one sitting even if you're loving it. Some stories strike close to home, things we've been through, or know someone has. This is a bit like pump fiction, a bit like IT (In terms of the kids at school and them being through hell), and a bit of every crime story ever created but in the best ways.

Good: Love, love, love the hell out of the storylines with Amy and Beth. Both intriguing and heartbreaking, these stories never stop being interested. I also loved 95% of the storylines that are individually told. Side characters talking about their sex life, or cheating, or whatever is STILL so damn good. I also thought the art was great and fit the tone of dialogue perfectly.

Bad: I didn't love all the Amy Racer stories. Some went on a bit long. I get what they were there for but took me out of the story sometimes.

Overall I loved it. This will stick with me as one of the best stories in comics of all times for me. A 5 out of cool beans 5.
