Book: All Summer Long, by Hope Larson

All Summer Long by Hope Larson came out 3 whole years ago and I have been missing out. What a funny, smart, beautifully drawn, sharply observed graphic novel about being at the prickly edge between childhood and adolescence, all the smartness and complications there, things you see much more clearly than you may a few years later and things that do not yet make any sense at all.

Oh, and it's about music, and friendship, and change. The upside to having taken quite a long time to finally read this is that the sequel, All Together Now, is already out, and I will be reading it as soon as possible.
