"Absolutely unforgettable! Will I See? addresses the topic of
violence against women with beauty and power. The black and white
images are realistic, but there is also a dreamlike quality to
them. Swaths of red add a dramatic flair, implying violence and
death. Will I See? has a strong emotional affect and is best suited
for teens and older readers."

"I would recommend this book to anyone who likes graphic novels
that are gritty, nonfiction, or emotional. Or to everyone, because
it's that good!"
*NetGalley*
Will I See? is a powerful, evocative story that is amplified
by visually stunning graphics. Through the eyes and actions of a
teenage girl who resides with her Nokomis in a large city, the
graphic novel speaks to the epidemic of Missing and Murdered
Indigenous Women and Girls in Canada.
