Nicole (2 KP) rated Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children in Books
Nov 12, 2017
Fantastic Read!
These books were wonderful. I love books that can pull you into a whole new place. Riggs hit a home run at that. The descriptions are vivid and bring you right into the world of the peculiars. The pictures throughout the book really make the characters come to life. I read every book in a couple days and I waited anxiously for each book even the graphic novels. If you are a fan on fantasy books, this is one that is definitely worth reading.
graveyardgremlin (7194 KP) rated Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Time of Your Life (Season 8, Volume 4) in Books
Feb 15, 2019
TIME OF YOUR LIFE had a very confusing plot and I barely managed to follow it. I have a feeling it would have worked better shot as a television show. The best part featured Xander and Dawn's dialogue, the rest was just okay, although the additions with giants, centaurs, and forest creatures are getting ridiculous and carrying BtVS a little too far away from the series I love. Also, I didn't find the artwork as pleasing to the eye as the previous graphic novels. Definitely my least favorite in season eight so far.

I enjoyed this comic having never seen any of Dana Simpson's work before.
I have not been reading graphic novels for long but I do enjoy a fun story that has been cleverly coloured and well written artwork. I liked the flow of Ozy and Millie and will be searching out further work by Dana Simpson.
The forward makes reference to this being some of Dana Simpson's early work and that newer comics have improved with time - I liked this and don't see where the improvements could be made.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Zen Pencils: Creative Struggle in Books
Jul 12, 2018
I picked this book up on Netgalley by randomly looking through the graphic novels section on the website. This looked interesting and honestly, I'm really glad I took the time to read it. Gavin Aung Than was able to perfectly illustrate the struggle that many creative individuals have. It was truly inspiring. I think many people are scared to begin a project, or take a step out and create something different. This book has shown that you're not alone and the great creators in the world dealt with the same things that you are going though.
The artwork in this graphic novel is really fun. I enjoyed looking at the artwork and I really loved how it was illustrated.
All in all, the artwork, the words, everything was perfect.
*I received this book in exchange for an honest review.

RavenclawPrincess913 (253 KP) rated Coven in Books

Title: Coven
Author: Jennifer Dugan, Kit Seaton
Read Dates: August 17th
Rating: 4/5
I chose to read Coven by Jennifer Dugan and Kit Seaton because it seemed interesting and was sent to me by Bookishfirst. I love the cover it's very pretty. The title and rest of the cover is what caught my attention. This Graphic Novel takes place in Upstate New York. One thing I loved was the illustrations in this Novel. Graphic Novels are something out of my comfort zone to their a little harder to get into because I prefer to leave it up to the imagination. But I really liked the story. It's sad what happened to Ben's parents and I understand Emsy's frustration with moving and being the new girl as that was me a lot. I loved the ending it was very unexpected.
