words: Mariko Tamakidrawings: Jillian Tamaki
I found this book at W&CF doing that thing I mentioned a couple posts ago where I wander around the store and leave with whatever book has found it's way into my hands and stayed there. I like especially that the book portrays a very real friendship with ups and downs and closeness and distance. I have found that my truest friends are not the people that are constantly in life, but the people that I always come back to. I also like that the book was created collaboratively with Mariko doing the writing and Jillian doing the drawing. I see myself and my friends in the characters, as well as in the authors way of intertwining their art.
