"The titular character in this graphic novel is the load-bearing wall in multiple one-sided relationships. She is taking care of a sick grandfather; is trying to track down her mom, who has been ignoring her calls; and is holding it down at her restaurant job, trying to impress the new hostess at said restaurant. Maybe worst of all, she’s got a best friend who is too wrapped up in her own business to listen. It’s a lot! And it’s unsustainable. But as it all comes crashing down, Lee Lai uses clean and precise linework to communicate big and messy feelings."
