review:
'Limited Edition' by Aude Picault is a graphic novel about a young woman who feels discouraged by the relationships in her life. I really liked the story and art.

Claire is a neonatal nurse who, when we meet her, has had a series of boyfriends. Now that she is in her 30s, she is feeling the pressure of settling down. Her mother wants her to find someone and her friends are starting to have babies. When she meets Franck, it all seems to be perfect, but, as in any relationship, there are problems.

The story is quite good. I love the look at Claire's life in the hospital, as well as her insecurities as a person. The art is perfect for the story. The lettering is handwritten, and I had to really pay attention at times to figure out what the words were, but the style gave the book a unique charm. The book ends with a bibliography of feminist essays and studies about gender relations, which seems fitting after the story that is told.

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