Giant Days, Vol. 5 | 
pickI find this series to be utterly delightful. I read the first volume thinking I might not get into it because it's slice-of-life, but I fell in love with the characters, and it made me laugh. Cut to four volumes later, and I'm still liking it.
Book synchronicity - Esther‘s middle name is Fenella. I just finished Get a Life, Chloe Brown - Red asked Chloe if her middle name was Fenella. I‘ve never encountered this name anywhere before (I‘m guessing it‘s a British thing, and probably of a certain class?), and now twice in as many days.
pickLots of fun stuff happening in this one. I loved the music festival bits.
4/5 stars
I loved it!!! Just downloaded the next one :)

pick“When I got here I thought I knew everything. After a year, I'm pretty sure I know nothing.“
This volume covers the end of first year of college for three college roommates and perfectly captures the feelings of nostalgia and hopefulness of that time period.
“If your freak flag is a picture of you going to bed at nine thirty and reading, go for it. Fly it high.“
pickWhen I need a break from lines and lines of type too close together,Giant Days is a good place to go.Sharing the college adventures of this cast of characters is always entertaining and fun.
pickI loved this one so much! It covers the end of their first year in college, and perfectly captures the feelings of nostalgia and hopefulness of that time period. It‘s funny and smart and everything it should be. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I feel personally attacked by this. 😂😂😂
Just got to the States last night and so excited to be reunited with books that didn't fit in my luggage last time. Also put in 30 holds at the library 😂 starting off with these three. Also my only reading resolution this year was to review each book I read on litsy - super fail! I'll be trying to backlog my adult reads at least. Apologies in advance for post bombardment! Also trying the website Litsy out 💻 #mommyreads
pickArchaeology, ex-boyfriend stalking, end of first year, music festival, and furnishing an apartment.
#BookishBingo: Multiple authors
pickIf the last volume made me ask why I read this instead of rereading Bad Machinery, this reminded me of why this series is so fun. Daisy's archaeology dig was an absolute delight, and I could legit read just a full volume of the girls going to Ikea on its own. The music festival was a drag until the end, and the rest seemed like a lot of build-up for little result. Unless you count romantic tension between Esther and Ed? Up for it. A fun one.
My weekend reading plans include inhaling the next couple of volumes of Giant Days, finishing The Fifth Season, and starting my next #readersgonnaread book!
@collegecatlady Book received! 👍🏻
@Endowarrior21 You should be getting your next one by the middle of this week! 🤞🏻
Also a big shoutout to @silentrequiem for the reminders and tracking! 💕😽
pickAs always, this was relatable and nostalgic. 3 college roommates (and their male counterparts, also roommates) finish their freshman year of college and move into an off-campus rental house together. I found the pictured snippets particularly relatable
Spending a rainy Saturday catching up on a favorite.
My freak flag is ABSOLUTELY going to bed at 9:30 and reading.
pick5⭐️ Looking for a relatable series that helps you reminisce your college days, filled with laugh out loud humor ? This is the one. Warning: don‘t read in public. If you choose to do so , do it at your own risk- I have learned my lesson well.
pickAnother awesome volume of Giant Days. Four stars!
pickOh, this? It is just joy in comic form.
pickAnother volume and only good things to say. I love the Giant Days series. It‘s cute and light and makes me laugh. Just what the doctor ordered.
pickThis series isn't something I'd normally read but I ended really enjoying it as a fun wee slice of life. It also made me miss my college days 😂
When I got here I thought I knew everything. After a year, I'm pretty sure I know nothing.
pickFinished Book 10 of #letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon! 🎉 I'm so in love with this series, it is not going downhill! In case you're confused about this frame--the girls are sort of improv role playing in an IKEA...just like all #BFFS should. ☺️❤️ #speechbubblechallenge
Adorable #BFFS. I'm starting to forgive McGraw for overly resembling an ex of mine (esp in personality, which is what makes it hard, plus that's the same ex who used "logic like a blunt force weapon" as I mentioned with a different comic). But I don't want to hate him! #speechbubblechallenge #letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon

This=#allthefeels for me, but not so much in a good way-this is one way I AM like Daisy: trying to be accommodating, getting frustrated, & inappropriately blowing up in front of too many people. Daisy gets rewarded for this outburst but in real life you get the reputation of "the girl who stood on a table a party and yelled at everybody" and that don't go down so well. #speechbubblechallenge #letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon
@Clwojick @TricksyTails
#badassery! So part of why I love this series is that these characters in some ways totally map onto me and my best friends in college (I'm Daisy!), except that this scene would definitely have been played by my Susan, not by me. Daisy is both the baby and the mom of the group, here, and that's pretty unusual...I was just the baby. 😂 #speechbubblechallenge #letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon

#bffs, lookin' out for each other...❤️

#riotgirls What did you think I was gonna do when I finished volume 4? Just stop? 😂😂 #speechbubblechallenge #letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon
pickHilarious, even when you‘re on cold medicine. Look, it matches my Puffs Plus Lotion box!
pickSeriously, just so lovely. I look forward to these holds when I get them as I just can't get enough of these characters!
I‘m with Daisy on this one. Books in bed or thousands of people outside and no showers? Books every time.
I finally got this from the library!!! I‘m also obsessed with my new pajama pants 😍🌙 Cozy baking and reading day?!
pickI ♥️ these girls so much! I somehow always seem to end up reading this comic when I'm sick. It is the perfect comfort read.
pick⛺⛺⛺⛺⛺ Somebody please help me! I buy these lovely comic books and then a short while later I finish reading one and then I have to wait for the next one. I love Giant Days so much that I can't cope with the wait. GIVE ME MORE!! 😭😭😭
