Dancing at the Pity Party by Tyler Feder
4.0
challenging funny reflective sad fast-paced

You would think that a graphic novel about a mom dying from cancer wouldn't be funny, but this one is. Feder, the author and illustrator, tells her own story about her mom's passing in this book. I commend her on tackling the topic of grief in a way that I have never seen done before. While I have never experienced a death of a close loved one, I imagine this title would be helpful to those who have. Especially if they share the same bizarre humor as the author.
