Welcome to Litsy!

Finished this #graphicmemoir on Hoopla this morning. Funny, insightful, and I enjoyed the background details in each of the four-panel pages. (It took me longer than 30 minutes to read but that's what I read this morning.)

I also tried #Bookly for a second, but it didn't give me a square infographic and multiple users (including Pro ones) on the Play Store complained about syncing issues.

A #graphicmemoir following the author through her lifelong relationship with her breasts from the time she was flat-chested when everyone else was developing, through nursing, her thoughts on her Mom losing a breast to cancer, until she herself had to make that choice. With much on family life, friends, change, & emotions sprinkled throughout, this is an extremely well done & thought-provoking memoir of a woman‘s life.

Just finished this beautifully illustrated graphic novel about, you guessed it, tits. But really it was about so much more... When Jennifer was diagnosed with breast cancer, she realized her tits told a story. This is that story. Please go out and read it. 💗

I don't really read comics/graphic novels and thus I turned to good old Google for today's #AndItsJuly #comicsbywomen and found this beauty... #addtoTBR @RealLifeReading

Hayden's voice is equal parts self-deprecating and sincere, bringing to mind Roz Chast's heartfelt but hilarious memoir Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant. Both artists have a scribbly style, a gift for empathy, and powerful messages about the nature of death and family. Hayden in particular is skilled at gradually growing a list of symbols derived from dreams, art, and anecdotes that build momentum and unity into her life experiences.

I really do have 5,000 photos of my cats with books. This was a good one.

Went to the library and thought I would try a graphic novel. Here's my selections.
