Commentary Appertaining To Books This One Summer

This is a hard graphic novel to rate for me. There's a lot of poignancy and well-meant subtext surrounding girls discovering what society is like for women and how easy it can be to fall prey to internalized misogyny and tearing each other down, but at the same time, I don't think any of it is addressed clearly enough for the target demographic. If this were a graphic novel geared towards adults or the older YA range, I wouldn't think twice about the fact that nobody really calls Rose out on

The marriage between the story & the graphics are a beautiful relationship!!!You couldn't have the graphics without the story, and you couldn't have this story without the graphics. The story is bittersweet, powerful, charming, and sad.....a coming of age young adult gorgeous graphic......dealing with real issues. Two young girls are dealing with their own set of problems while adults in their lives are also struggling. Lots of details hidden in the graphics..... truthful expressions built

This story follows Rose's yearly summer trip with her mom and dad to a lake house in Awago Beach. It's their getaway, their refuge. Rosie's friend Windy is always there, too, like the little sister she never had. But this summer is different. This One Summer felt like a great summer read. And even though the plot wasnt the most exciting, it still kept me flipping page after page. Plus, the friendship and banter between the two main characters added some needed humor to the story.(Windys dance

Possibly my favorite thing about this book is that it is blue.I mean, I love the plot and the characters and how the problems of growing up are presented and then not easily resolved like tying a bow; I love that there are parents who have their own problems; I love that the dialogue is spare and meaningful and that the art is gorgeous.This One Summer is a wonderful book.But I love that Mariko and Jillian made the creative leap to think of this book in another color -- this book was not drawn in

There is almost nothing that I would have found enjoyable about this story, if it weren't for the beautiful graphics that brought it to life.Which is weird, because drawings are something I find quite agreeable to look at and, in graphic novels, its usually the only thing that I really demand, along with a passable to good plot.But there was no plot in this.Rose and her parents, as every summer since a young age, are spending the season at Awago, where there are beaches, fresh air and where she

This One Summer is worth a read for the breathtaking artwork alone. Check it out:Unfortunately, the story didnt do much for me. I really liked the idea of a summer of firsts and lessons, but when it was all said and done, I dont really think the main character learned anything. Theres some slut-shamming done and she never understood why it wasnt okay to say certain things. Though her friend did correct her a few times, she seemed to just write it off. The book also never felt like it actually

Will it embarrass you if I gush?Aw, hell, it doesn't matter.Here I go. I'm going to gush.I'm going to gush, going to tell you that, as far as graphic novels go, this is best in show.I didn't only turn the pages of this illustrated story with great enthusiasm, I experienced moments of great reflection here (held my breath a moment or two, too).This book knocked me out.The writer/illustrator team of This One Summer, Jillian and Mariko Tamaki, are Canadian cousins who have clearly listened to how
