Lost Soul, Be At Peace follows on from @maggiethrash ’s debut graphic-memoir Honor Girl. I fell in love with her simple yet expressive drawings and think the whole graphic novel + memoir is a perfect combination. I have a growing collection of them! . Lost Soul explores young Maggie’s depression post coming out as lesbian woven with the melancholy and futility of teenage life. Surprised that her coming out hasn’t caused a scene, she returns to overthinking the tedium of life. Soon, her cat disappears, her brother leaves for college and she’s left alone in a lonely household. Oh, and there is a ghost. . Thrash’s blurring of genre lines never undermines her layered story, cleverly weaving both major and minor details to create a story that is emotional, nuanced, yet relatable. Thrash shares the lessons she learnt, about herself and her family. I can’t wait to see if a third instalment is on the way! . #lostsoulbeatpeace #maggiethrash #honorgirl #walkerbooks #gifted #bookreview #bookreviewer #bookblogger #booklife #graphicmemoir #memoir #bookshelfie #shelfie #rainbowshelfie #bookworm #bookstagram #bookoftheday #queerbooks #lgbt #lgbtqia (at Liverpool) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw4Jp5Dn9Lu/?igshid=1dtawwss0zndb
