Title: Paul Moves Out

For me there is an
allure towards Canadian graphic novels.
There’s something in seeing and reading about content that only growing
up in Canada you would know about, that I find alluring. Seeing Toronto, or Queen Street, or Montreal
in a book is so comforting. I also like
seeing brands like Tim Hortons, Molson, or Humpty Dumpty chips. There’s this sense of sharing a common voice
when you read a book that features those things. So whenever I spot a book in the library that
was made in Canada, I pick it up to read.
Paul Moves Out has exactly all the Canadian content that I like in a
book.
The book is about a young man named Paul from
Montreal who meets a girl named Lucie.
Eventually they develop a relationship and move in together. That’s basically the story of the book,
however it’s the small things that I find appealing in this book. Not all relationships are as suspenseful as
they show in Hollywood movies. Most of
the time, romance is as simple as staying home at night and sharing a wonderful
dinner together. This is what Paul Moves
Out is all about, finding romance in the most basic parts of a relationship. Once you find that special person in your
life, the most meaningful parts will be how wonderful it was to have shared
those moments together.
