Stunningly drawn, this graphic novel brilliantly charts the deep and sometimes desperate conflicts and moods that prevail in teen years. Teenage witch Skim keeps a diary in which she records all her thoughts, hopes and fears. There’s the grief and anxiety following the suicide of a boy in school, her own inner loneliness and then the complexities of romance. Easily accessible, it gives a sympathetic and realistic view of adolescence.
