This book didn't capture my interest or really touch me emotionally. It felt like a timeline of events and facts rather than a cohesive narrative with a purpose. And the drawings did little to create atmosphere or depth. Overall, the book felt flat to me and came across like a trendy millennial webcomic. I read the first few chapters and then scanned the rest.

All that being said, it's clear that tons of people disagree with me. It's great that so many readers felt validated and comforted by this book. It just isn't for me.
