**WaterSnakes is NOT for kids!!** Wow. This story is like a trippy nightmare! It's so odd, out-there, dark, and imaginative. WaterSnakes is a graphic novel that looks like a long picture book. It's even picture book sized (the hardcover). The art is both cute and beautiful. You will go right along with Mila throughout her dream...if it even was a dream.

This is one of those YA novels that I wish I'd have never paid full price for... The premise was predictable, and eye-roll inducing. The one thing I remember is how much I hated the writing.
The movie is actually better than this novel. I suggest skipping the book and just watching the movie with the kid that plays young Han Solo.

I received a copy of Parable of the Sower from Abrams ComicArts through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Parable of the Sower is one of my favorite books and it translates really well to the graphic novel format. I loved Lauren's journal entries.
This is such an important story and I'm thrilled at the idea of it finding a wider audience.

Humorous

Even death messes with Dresden.
This is much more light hearted than the previous novel. (if you haven't read side jobs I highly suggest you do before reading this book. or at least read the short story Aftermath.) I laughed so much. plus you get to meet new people and learn more about a few side characters (such as Morty).

I did think this was a novel in itself, albeit there are 2 sequels, but actually this is only a third of the story and you have to read the next two books to find out what is going on! This book leaves on a cliffhanger and with none of the threads looking like they will be tied up any time soon.
