May 02, 2012 Nora rated it 5 of 5 stars

Shelves: fiction, comics-graphic-novels

Great coming of age story about a 15 year old girl in 1960s Coney Island, a time where this new generation of 'teenagers' were on the rise, as well as this amazing boardwalk culture. This is one of the best examples of storytelling through a graphic novel format, with such a amazing flow through out the entire text and images. Where many graphic novels are too guilty of having so-called awkward pause occurring, Lindner is able to make amazingly smooth transitions from panel to panel.
