Little Misanthropist<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought Gabriel’s work looked familiar, and luckily the search option on this website is better than my brain, because I reviewed Forget Me Not<\/a> a few years back, which is one of those books that’s been lodged into a small corner of my brain ever since. Thanks, my own website! Sooner or later you’ll be doing all of my thinking for me. As for this one, between the title and the message on the cover, I think you can probably guess the general vibe of the book. I mean, it’s hard to argue with him at this point in American history. This one is all about seeing things as they really are and what’s he’s hoping to get out of it when he meets up with guys. It’s a simple three step process that I won’t spoil here, which works great until it doesn’t. The rest of the comic deals with that time, how he changed during it, how he could see what was happening but couldn’t stop it, and how it all confirmed his worst suspicions. But still, who could ever stick to those three steps forever? This is a little on the heartbreaking side, but it’s also not something that you’ll soon forget. $7<\/p>\n\n\n\n
