Heaven, West Virginia by Ravi Teixeira


I loved this. This was a very simple story about escaping an abusive parent. And with many difficult stories sometimes it is in the simplicity that we find that beauty. This could have been much longer but I feel that thanks to the vivid imagery Teixeira was able to convey not just his fear of his father but his fear of accepting himself because of his father's abuse. Thanks to a supportive Aunt and a patient man our MC is finally able to accept himself and that's beautiful.

As always thanks to NetGalley and Oni Press for the eArc!
