[inlibrisveritas]

I swear these books lack any sort of subtlety, they see an idea and then they scream it out loud while literally spelling it out in bright red paint. Where some of the conversations flow naturally, others are just so shoehorned in that it's cringe-inducing. I spend so much of this series loving the ideas but hating 60% of the execution. We need more graphic novels that don't shy away from tough topics, because there is a lack, but the rather abrupt way all of it is introduced is just tiring. Life is not a series of shock value panels.

I imagine I'll ignore this series right up until I need another quick readathon read for a prompt I'm struggling with, seeing as that's exactly what's happened for this one and two previous ones. *shrugs*

THOSE LAST PAGES WERE SO HEARTBREAKING YET SO PRECIOUS 😭❤

How do I live until volume 9? 💔

Seriously, Saga just keeps getting better and better. I'm still bitter at Marko whinnying over that "I won't use a weapon again" and then obviously using it (although that didn't happen in this one, mind you) but Alana was so fucking badass in this volume (have you seen how good she looks in the cover!?) and Hazel is just the best and I also love Petrichor now. I'm also so grateful to see Prince Robot being a better... robot being? xD

Buuuut, there's something that happened involving The Will and now I'm so afraid of what is ahead for this precious family :___
