We find two sisters bound by an immense love for each other but also for science. Unfortunately, during a bad experience, one of them, Maura dies. Francis does not accept this loss and decides to resuscitate his sister. His attempt restores his sister's body, of course, but not the latter. M finds himself in a body with no memory of his past life. It's an interesting read on the strong ties that can unite brothers and sisters but also on mourning, on acceptance. M finds herself in Maura's place, a place she certainly didn't ask for but who still wants to live this life. Talia Dutton knew how to do a remarkable job with this book because I was not bored even once! I wanted to have a lot more details about M, where she came from etc. but this expectation was not fulfilled. However, the ending was very touching! Many thanks to Abrams Books for allowing me to read this little gem. This book makes me want to read more graphic novels even more geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
