I grabbed a copy of Goodnight Punpun at Bookman's down in Tucson. I had no idea what I was getting into. Full of tragedy, awkwardness and abuse it still manages to be a gripping read and even a little uplifting. I haven't been this captivated since I read 20th Century Boys. I don't know if I can really recommend Punpun though, it's challenging stuff.

The cover of Goodnight Punpun by Inio Asano. Printed in yellow, blue and white it features a strange bird ghost child sitting on the seat of a public bus.
