Raleigh doesn't have a soul. A cat stole it - or at least that's what she tells people - or at least that's what she would tell people if she told people anything. But that would mean talking to people, and the mere thought of social interaction is terrifying. How did such a shy teenage girl end up in a car with three of her hooligan classmates on a cross-country road trip? Being forced to interact with kids her own age is a new and alarming proposition for Raleigh, but maybe it's just what she needs - or maybe it can help her find what she needs - or maybe it can help her to realize that what she needs has been with her all along.
This is a sweet albeit slightly depressing book about a teenage girl trying to find herself (and her soul). ITs a short comic regarding a kid who is dealing with troubling thoughts and trying to find her feet. It reflects how teenagers feel at that age and how they are trying to fit in to a world where they don't always fit in. Slightly depressing at times, comic at others and the introduction of cats is both bizarre and cute at the same time. Its not the most obvious comic to read but if you happen to stumble across it, its worth stopping for half hour and reading.
