This was a super cute comic that looks to remind us of the importance of an appropriate work/life balance.

This was a cute and brief graphic novel about Death taking a year-long vacation away from work. There‘s nothing really deep or riveting here, but it was fun.

A quick read at work, recommended by a colleague who was raving about it and insisted I read it (we like quirky reads.) When death, a workaholic, is told they must use a year‘s worth of leave, this grim reaper goes out into the world to find himself and learn to live. It‘s really an adorable little graphic novel with a good message. #booked2022 ~ involves an exploration

Ran into this graphic novel while searching the new book stacks at the library and just had to read all about Death‘s year-long sabbatical taken because HR requires him to use his leave time! Had to see what death did on his year off. Brian Rea illustrates the Modern Love column for the New York Times. A little gem that might even make you think!

Ericalambbrown This sounds snarkily fantastic! 🤣 5y
