Last night...
...As I lay in bed, I re-devoured both Definition and Potential, the graphic novels that are basically the high school diaries of Ariel Schrag of Berkeley High School. Schrag is hilarious, intelligent, and amazingly candid--not afraid to show low moments as well as high ones. I'm actually amazed that she could be so self-aware and articulate when she was 16 and 17, and frankly, I'm kind of jealous. She's in the middle of working on her series, Likewise, about her senior year in high school, so there's more to come.
