Last Things: A Graphic Memoir of Loss and Love
by Marissa Moss
emotional
reflective
sad
medium-paced
A memoir that will resonate with anyone who's ever had to witness and help a loved one with a debilitating illness. The daily fear of accidents, sudden turns in health, the complexities of trying to juggle healthcare and life as usual, and the ever growing "Lasts" lists that you don't realize until it's all over. Moss' illustrations brilliantly depict each emotion as we see her family shift during this new development and how their dynamic changes. While this is undoubtedly a sad event, there is still hope in these pages as shown through the perseverance of Moss and her family and how they each carry this time in their hearts and actions going forward.
