After years of difficulty trying to have children, a young couple finally announce their pregnancy, only to have the most joyous day of their lives replaced with one of unexpected heartbreak.

The use of color was obvious but still ha me tearing up.
4 stars because I wish there was more. ( )

Queer storytelling,HOORAY! A must read if you're looking for an uplifting story about the ebbs and flows of life through the lens of a lesbian couple. the artwork is soft and at times almost dream like. It really makes the difficult aspects of the story feel more personal and yet also universal. There were some raw and triggering moments (the miscarriage) in the story that may be hard for some people to digest. Moments like these are handled with care and compassion and not jarring at all. It is especially poignant when there is no dialogue. I didn't really expect to feel so many complex emotions in one day. It was an experience. ( )

I love the art in this, and I deeply appreciate what Chabbert is trying to share about grief, especially grief over the loss of a child—of the hope of a child. But I wish this weren't so one-sided. We see very little of how the protagonist's wife is coping with the loss; she seems to exist in the narrative mainly to make things easier for the protagonist. Perhaps that's how Chabbert's wife dealt with the real-life death of their son, but it reads as a missed opportunity to deepen the storytelling. ( )

Very quick read, memoir about the loss of a baby -- and from the details, very nearly the loss of the author as well. The illustrations do a great job of representing the emotions associated with the story. ( )
