Just finished "Freshman Year" by Sarah Mai. It's a pretty good autobiographical fiction graphic novel about the first year of college, and instead of trying to make things fit into a plot, it lets them float apart and remain unresolved, which is nice. Not so much explicit wisdom, but in offering a realistic picture of the personal struggles & emotional moments of the college transition, I feel like it's pretty valuable.

Just finished "Be That Way" by Hope Larson. An excellent semi-graphic-novel about highschool friendships & romances, written as a diary including many illustrations but also a lot of prose. Has a pretty open ending just like "Freshman Year" did, and it's interesting how they both hit a lot of the same themes, despite their differences. Despite being from a slightly younger age group, and having had a totally different highschool experience, a lot of the '90s elements resonated with me.
