#OffMyShelf “Graphic Novel”

Actually a memoir but close enough. This three book set chronicles John Lewis‘ experiences as a Civil Rights activist in the last century. The book opens on the day of President Obama‘s inauguration in 2009 and flashes back to Lewis‘ beginnings and later trials and accomplishments as part of the movement. This format is a good way to make history come alive.

An excellent retelling of the classic and the great graphics to go along with the story.

Enjoy!

I read the full manga, and the first half was truly unsettling. But it lost me in the last half.

Hmm not as good as part one IMO.

Two friends who try to make the most of their last summer together🖤

Fun graphic novel about “twin” sisters who preform exorcisms (obviously)😂🖤

Great artwork, as expected with Ito, with a narrative that doesn't entirely hold together, as expected with Ito. I need to remember this next time I see one of his wonderfully produced books in a shop, and then get it from the library.
A low pick, but a pick.
Not as graphic with the body horror as he can be, heavy on themes of suicide.

This book takes the standard ‘small group on a mission‘ trope and… does not do much with it. Poe Dameron is brave, feisty, and a good leader, but this tale is not very original, harboring few surprises. Pretty much only for STAR WARS fans; anyone else can find more fun and adventure elsewhere.

Reboots are hard.
In this new version, Wonder Woman is not raised by Amazons in Themyscira. Instead, as a baby, she is given to Circe, who is exiled to Hades. Diana is trained to fight and wield magic. She has not one mystical lasso, but three, each with a different power. She‘s still inherently the same character we know, but now a sorcerer as well. I‘m on board with this new take on the classic heroine, and looking forward to more adventures!

Another warm, cozy, and welcoming series of cute cafe adventures. These charming comics look at many topics, from dealing with anxiety disorders to being autistic to just being yourself. Perfect for anyone looking for affirmations or seeking to understand themselves and others. A great reset from a stressful day. #Comics #Neurodiversity
