Welcome to Litsy!

Every so often I have a graphic novel fixation, and I‘m back on it. Bonus points if it is nonfiction or a memoir and this one is! The author grew up in Turkey and takes the reader along from the time she‘s a child, too young to be in school—though she yearns to join her sister there—through college and young adulthood. Her changes are depicted right alongside changes to her country and therefore family. A #blameitonlitsy read thanks to @JamieArc

Boyfriend is gaming this morning while I‘m trying to make my way through my stack of #library books. Anyone else enjoy #nonfiction graphic novels?

Decent read. I kept thinking is this someone famous, a famous artist or punk rock musician?

Well, no, not really. He is very famous for originating the Afro-Punk scene and Afropunk Festival which has now gone global. Noice!! 🎸

Movie is out-of-print though, not on streaming anywhere and a DVD will set you back close to $100 ! 🤑

And so ends the first five star of the year. 🥹😂😭
Hilarious and tender, Linney is given such life, a strong character with a specific voice, yet anyone who's had any remotely friendly feelings toward a particular cat will have the joy of recognizing the spectrum of feline behaviour from the fondly tolerated to the widely enjoyed. Her people provide entertainment and heart as well. Love the art style, 1/2

Poetry. 😁

The cat's face! Impotent rage and loathing in this group hug. 😆

Cuddly cryptid, mysterious mouser. ☺️😺
