Down-to-Earth without extra drama. While reading one still understands how huge and devastating these little things are to the young main character. Believable and charming.

The main character’s anonymity makes it relatable: the girls could be anyone of us. But Louhi’s story is also full of tiny details that make the story unique – it feels like reading someone’s life story.

Imaginary Girl is like a poem, or like a forgotten photograph. Reading a comic book has never felt as therapeutic and cleansing!
– Antti Granlud, Soundi magazine

Illustrations are minimalistic. There’s enough background for reader to fill in the pieces, but the focus is on the characters. There are breathtaking full page portraits, and amazing gentleness.

Imaginary Girl can be anyone: you or me, but there’s something unique in her too, small nuances, vibrances, and layers. The book highlights how life can be fragile, but also so powerful. How everything depends on so little.

The text gets to the point, and pictures are used sparingly. The reader has a change to fill the gaps in their own mind. To explore their own memories.

Thank you, Aino Louhi, for sharing the universal feeling of insecurity, making it visual and relatable.

Fast to read, but enjoyably long! Body language and facial expressions of the characters tell much more than the words! Beautiful, gentle debut!
