A review by julieuh
Roaming by Jillian Tamaki, Mariko Tamaki

5.0

the cousins Tamaki have an astonishing ability to aim directly for my heart and hit every time. I know I would have loved this even if it had come out a few months earlier, before my view of myself and my personal history were permanently changed by grief, but of course the timing was just right so that I could have my heart shredded by what was meant to be a very sweet scene. I am very grateful to be able to engage with art that is thoughtful, meticulous, and vulnerable in its depiction of life, the joy and the mess, because without it I would be very literally lost.
