Blankets

beautiful and heartfelt story. i loved the seamless transition from childhood to adolescence. it was like watching a movie. the illustrations were also painstakingly drawn, and i agree from one of the reviews, it's remarkable how much the artist recounted from his past. i love how he sheds his innocence and naivety, both as a person and as a christian. i feel like it was successful because it was so personal—the more details and nuances he could remember, the more i could relate to the narrator. because of my recent departure from adolescence, "blankets" warmed my nerves.
