Omari Allen omariallen — I didn't realize this was a comic book until I got it from the library. I read it in a few hours. I really enjoyed it. Depicts a boy questioning his faith, love and his ability to make friends. Not "preachy", not hypocritical, the author does a good job in portraying the life of a good guy who is trying to figure out how to be good.

Nadir Noory nadirkinalur — This was depressing as hell...but if you are grieving I can imagine it speaks to you in unimaginable ways. Plus, the writing is amazing
