Roaming, spanning five days as old friends Dani and Zoe reunite on their first break from college, is the first adult graphic novel from Caldecott-winning cousins Jillian Tamaki and Mariko Tamaki.

spans just five days as old friends Dani and Zoe reunite on their first break from college. Tagging along is Dani's new classmate, Fiona — whose presence quickly threatens to upend the trip.

As a romance begins to blossom between Zoe and Fiona, Dani is thrust to the side and, momentarily, forgotten. The Tamakis have such a talent for capturing the highs and lows of friendship and love. Consider Fiona, whose strong personality and lust for adventure quickly cause friction among the friend group.

"Okay, but for real. We're paying too much money to hang out in our damn hostel," Fiona says."We are gorgeous. We are young. We are in New York City. Now put on your [f---ing] shoes." The fourth character here is, of course, the city itself. Illustrated in spare pastel pink and periwinkle coloring, images of famous museums, crowded streets, giant pieces of pizza and mountains of garbage abound through the more than 400 pages.
