I mean, the cliffhanger is real. This might be one of my favorite volumes so far, I think because of the intertwining of the various plot threads and their culmination. This series has so many memorable moments. My favorites are the emotional, reflective asides Hazel offers, and the ones in this volume really tug at the heartstrings.

psalva @TieDyeDude I‘m getting the other volumes from the library tomorrow. I can‘t imagine waiting longer! 11mo

This my third finish for #JubilantJuly and another #SeriesLove2023

There isn‘t much more to say than has already been said, but those last pages were gut wrenching. I want to pan this because of them, but I won‘t.

One of Saga's central themes is pacifism. Ironically, Marko's desire to avoid violence only leads to more of it. The other big theme is propaganda. The war between Wreath and Landfall only persists because both sides demonize each other and control the media. Vaughan has mastered the cliffhanger.

Amazing storytelling and artwork, as always.

Another good entry in the series.

That cliffhanger at the end, though!

I finished my 9-day SAGA reread this afternoon. In related news, I wept a whole lot.

I‘m gonna use A MAN AND HIS CAT to regulate my emotions before I read Vol 10 for the first time. People seem to agree it‘s both charming and heartbreaking, though, so this might backfire on me. Stay tuned for further comics-induced weeping, maybe?

Well! With an ending like that, I'm exceptionally glad I didn't end up waiting the four years most readers just did for the next volume - just until it reaches my spot on the library hold list. 😭 Gripping story and fantastic (though regularly explicit and/or gory) art as always.

My traditional new year's day activity of spending some time looking back at what I've read the past year. Pictured are just a few of my favourites, and my stats. I'm pleased that my diverse book numbers continue to go up, but conscious that I still want to increase them. I'm also pleased that my tbr overall went down!

I don't think I'm going to set specific reading goals for 2021, just participate in some challenges.

This volume is so sad and I‘m not gonna lie I‘m crying and don‘t know if I want there to be a volume 10. My heart hurts for all the characters and their families. Watching hazel narrate and grow up through this series is heartbreaking. you see how truly fast she has had to grow up in this world of hatred and evil. This one is an amazing story and gah the pain. I‘m just gonna go cry now and wait for volume 10.

hermyknee You are not alone. Volume 9 is absolutely heartbreaking! Have you heard any news on volume 10? I thought I had heard they were taking a hiatus but I might need to look up news as it‘s been a year since I checked. 4y

what I can I say. To everyone who still has this ahead of them: don‘t do it. vol 8 has a good ending, no need to do this to yourself. If you still decide to read it: you don‘t need to prepare to have your heart broken. But it will be torn out, stepped on and shattered into a million pieces😭😭😭😭😭😭

Despite ripping my heart out, it is again 5/5🌟

"Anticipation and dread aren't opposites, just different versions of the same game. Both involve knowing that something is going to happen, but not knowing when. And whether you end up winning or losing, you at least get to reach a conclusion."

Pretty much sums up how I feel about the end of Saga (for now). My heart was ripped out and now I have to wait a year for Vaughan to give it back. 5 ????? out of 5 for vols. 7, 8 & 9.
