Rec: Spinning, by Tillie Walden
Oct. 17th, 2017 03:37 amA beautifully drawn, honest coming-of-age memoir centered on the world of competitive skating. The drawings are fascinating and understatedly emotional. I read this fairly long graphic memoir in one sitting. Walden's social anxiety and coming out story are intensely relatable.
This author-artist is just 21, and I eagerly look forward to her future work.
Content notes: bullying, an incident of attempted sexual assault, dealing with homophobia
