MY THOUGHTS: So at this point, it's impossible to give this the review it deserves without spoiling it so I'll probably keep this short and sweet. So many bloggers I trust mentioned that something shocking/drastic/indescribable happens in this edition and man, the authors sure didn't pull any punches. I don't know that I'll ever get over the ending. I mean, I actually tossed the book on the couch and declared "I'm done!" as in forever. However, I doubt that's true. On the plus side, I did get to see some more of cute little Ghus in this one.
RATING: 5 PAWS (and one ripped out heart!)
I almost quite watching Game of Thrones season one after episode two with Lady. That was nearly it for me!
ReplyDeleteI know. Isn't amazing how some fiction can still destroy us???
DeleteI'm not into graphic novels, but now you've piqued my curiosity!
ReplyDeleteOh Priscilla, you must give this one a go. It's one of the best out there.
DeleteI have got to catch up with this series! I've heard other people talk about the ending too, now I'm dying to find out😁
ReplyDeleteYes, because they we can chat and I don't have to worry about spoiling it for you!
DeleteOh no!! haha I need to start this series!!
ReplyDeleteErica, I'm kind of surprised you haven't!
DeleteI've been looking for another graphic novel series to try. You have me so curious now! especially about the ending.
ReplyDeleteGive this one a go. But beware, it's VERY graphic.
DeleteYou were! I warned you! I know for you it was just the one thing, but for me it was also the other thing, so it was a two-fer. And now we have to wait while the creators are on hiatus :-/
ReplyDeleteSent you a message on Twitter so as not to spoil anything for anybody. Let's just say several things in the volume broke me.
DeleteI was going to say... "OH I think Kristen likes this series!" and then decided yo find her comment :) I'll have to read this!!!
Deletethis made me laugh! i have done that before with a book slammed it down and left the room.
ReplyDeleteYep, except even then it still doesn't work does it?
DeleteOH NO. I'm so scared now! I'm still back in book 5 or so. I need to catch up and then throw up, I guess. LOL.
ReplyDeleteYes, you do. And yes you might!
DeleteOh no? But that you loved it. That's good at least :)
ReplyDeleteYep, it's still one of my fave graphic novels of all time.
DeleteOh wow, okay now that's a review that has me so curious about this!
ReplyDeleteHaha - that's the idea :)
DeleteI keep seeing this manga on a ton of blogs. I should try it! 😊
