Real Friends


















As a graphic novel memoir this is a departure from Shannon Hale's typical work.  That is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is different.  Shannon in the story struggles with making real friends as opposed to being in "the group" and constantly struggling to maintain a position in that group.  She also struggles with her relationship to her older sister who has some behavioral issues.  In the end, Shannon finds friends who are loyal and who like her for who she is.
