"Léo is my grandmother. During the Second World War, Léo worked as a waitress in the family inn, which had been requisitioned by the occupying German forces. Cheerful and carefree, she divided her days between her work at the inn, her friends, and her secret love affair with Felix, a young German soldier. Time passed. Léo became a mother, then a grandmother. Toward the end of her life, she told me about her past, which I present to you now in the form of these little pieces of her life."

Leo in Little Pieces was wonderful. A part of history that I didn't really learn in school. The art was gorgeous and the time jumps were well done. A quick read but still impactful. And I appreciate the real-life photos in the end! I felt like it tied everything together.

Thank you NetGalley and Europe Comics!

Leo in little pieces is mostly about a woman's life during the war.. The book is beautifully illustrated. I found however the whole storyline to be confusing... I understand it's supposed to show glimpses into the woman's life but it's hard to relate to the characters and remember the storyline.
