This artist draws Kasuga's teeth in a weirdly detailed way. I know it's a book about eating, but the exact same shot of Kasuga putting various foods in her lovingly drawn teeth and mouth occurs about eight times throughout the book. It put me in mind of those people who draw armpits or feet weirdly well and it's like I Know What You're Doing.

okay the 'star trek episode' conceit is wearing thin. can i have a conflict left unresolved after four pages please.
if they're just going to be unceremoniously thrown in jail and therefore out of the narrative make the space thieves actively murder sawyer.
the message was nice though.

The ending is very corny. Audibly groaned when I turned the page and saw the big long  masturbatory Facebook post about Living Life.
Despite this, the book was fine. There are some nice moments. It's like the book form of a hangover movie
