review:
'Invisible Differences' by Julie Dachez with art by Mademoiselle Caroline is a graphic novel about a young woman's journey to her Asperger's diagnosis.

We meet Marguerite who has a set routine every day. There are things she likes (her pets, quiet, a routine), and things she doesn't like (noise, sudden plans, crowds). She knows she is different, from not quite getting things people say, to not wanting to socialize with her coworkers. This leads her to stop in to the bookstore she passes every day, and eventually to a new way of life.

I really liked this story. It feels like the author has really infused it with her own journey. The illustrations are fun too. I liked the end section with more information on autism and Asperger's.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Oni Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
