Life on Earth series.
The first book of a graphic-novel series features four teenagers as they deal with their summertime struggles and romantic entanglements, all shadowed by the disappearance of classmate Claudia, who may or may not have been abducted by aliens. In graphic-memoirist MariNaomi's fiction debut, refreshingly creative illustrations in various minimalist styles (shifting with each protagonist's perspective) make up for some murky character motivations.
