This is a graphic novel with gorgeous watercolor artwork. It's story of a half-Japanese, half-English young woman named Nao Brown who has OCD. She's trying to arrange a comfortable existence for herself. It's an adult story which doesn't spell everything out and manages to convey a lot of feeling from the artwork alone. It's an interesting read filled with some interesting characters. There's some parts that get a little psychobabbly – not too much though. It possibly wraps up a little too neatly but overall I enjoyed this layered story.
