# Book Review: Skim

Hannah Stephenson of GLOSS mag and I were talking about graphic novels the other day and here is her recent review of Skim, which is written by Mariko Tamaki with illustrations by Jillian Tamaki.

A totally gorgeous book, I was envious of her copy and only had a couple of minutes to “skim” the book, pardon the pun.

Quote: Skim is an astonishingly genuine portrayal of a teenage girl dealing with an absurd range of problems in high school.
