Book 2:  Koko Be Good by Jen Wang

I picked this graphic novel up at a Little Free Library. The first thing that I noticed was the art. Jen Wang is a great artist that is able to capture expressions and story in pictures. I felt slightly let down by the text and the disconnection of dialogue in some areas, but overall....enjoyed the read!

Homeless, motorcycle riding, Koko is always getting herself into disastrous situations. After meeting 20 something Jon, and hearing about how he is going to Peru with his 30 something girlfriend to support her humanitarian activities, Koko decides to BE GOOD. But what is "being good"? Is it volunteering with the elderly, at the hospital, is it sending money to sponsor kids around the world? How do you change yourself and be honest with yourself at the same time?

Koko and Jon may seem like opposites. Jon seems to have it all figured out and what good means, but is it for him? Both characters are struggling to find their way and what they really want in life. That is what draws them together. Maybe they can help each other.
