BREAKIN' DOWN THE WALLS OF HEARTACHE

All About Book-Reviews has posted a new review of an old favorite, 12 Reasons Why I Love Her.

Here is a snippet, with the full review in the link:

"The book is made up of twelve vignettes illustrating Gwen and Evan’s relationship. It’s not overly-complex, it’s not new, but that might be why it’s enjoyable, in a way. You can guess what’s going to happen as soon as you meet the characters, but it’s watching the story unfold that is appealing.

Not that I know a ton about art, but the art is as simple as the story, and refreshingly so. The book is black and white, and Joelle Jones denotes the requisite sentimental flashbacks with rougher sketch-like panels which, again, is simple but effective.
"
