I Will Not Die Alone

by Dera White

[Quirky Cat]

While the title may come off as a little bit dark, I Will Not Die Alone is one of those graphic novels that immediately caught my attention. Written by Dera White and illustrated by Joe Bennett, this is a collection of comics revolving around...well...the end of the world.

I Will Not Die Alone is more of a collection of short stories, with some overarching stories mixed throughout. It's an interesting combination, one that helps keep our attention through to the end. Though I feel I should be clear, this is not a children's book despite what the artwork on the cover might have readers thinking!

This is one part a sequential art story and one part a self-help book. It's clearly intended to be inspiring (even the title makes that much clear, I believe), though there were times where I felt more somber than cheered up. Perhaps that was just my take on things, though – we all see the world differently.

Thanks to Forge Books and #NetGalley for making this book available for review. All opinions expressed are my own.
