Welcome to Litsy!

Waiting for my car at the shop. This was good reading to help me ignore the made for TV movie playing in the waiting room. This was just as enjoyable as the first volume. I‘m intrigued by the Will and Lying Cat, and I hope there‘s more backstory there in later volumes. I‘m glad that I decided to reread this series- it‘s more relatable to me now than it was when I was in college.

That was a good continuation, but, honestly? yeah, I could have done without the giant's massive warty ballsack and huge micro-penis (it did make me snort-laugh, though: "Mother, please! ... I told you not to look at it"). Otherwise, just as brutal, rude and funny as the first volume.

Can I remember what happened in Saga #1? ? Hopefully there will be a handy recap!
A graphic memoir of the author's "birthright tour" of Israel which resulted in her questioning of received ideas.
Maigret's on rest leave, but inevitably gets drawn into the goings on of the spa town's well-heeled inhabitants.
Not exactly book-related but the library's in the Art Centre, and seeing this flyer I booked us tickets for Suzi Ruffell's show.

4/5 ⭐

Truly great series need beloved secondary characters, and Saga quickly builds out its ensemble cast. Because the story ranges across the galaxy, Staples can draw all kinds of wild and grotesque things, as well as experiment with different aesthetics. Thematically, Vaughan put a lot of his experiences of fatherhood into the story.

This has the same drive as the first volume and was an exceptionally good continuation for the series, but what it did lack was something at the end to propel it to the next level. It just tapered off with no cliffhanger or anything.

It's still a very enjoyable read, though, and the writing and characters are awesome.

I'm excited to see where it's all leading.

A friend of mine recommended this series and I‘ve got to say I‘m completely hooked! I love the world building, the characters and the artwork is really good. Off to binge vol 3

Such rich world-building, and yet it never feels like story-telling pace is being hampered by exposition. Definitely continuing the series.

I‘m actually starting to get kind of attached to a ram/man, a fairy/woman and a disemboweled teen ghost. #strange

I've had this for a while. No idea why it took me so long to read it. I love the artwork. And the story.

This series is growing on me. A fun read with great images & way too much creativity. The amount of imagination going on to create this plot is ridiculous. The pacing is a little slow & the story can feel drawn out, but there are a lot of pieces at play. The tangents & backstories are all entertaining, so it doesn't feel like wasted space. It's weird, but it's a good time. Some gratuitous adult content.

I hope the text is readable.

I guess we all know this feeling.

#FlyHighJuly Day 25: Saga seems to have an affinity for #BlackAndPinkCovers. Paired with truffle mac and cheese.

Very enjoyable volume. Great art style 😍 #graphicnovel

Love learning more about these characters :)

Don‘t mind if I do :)

So, I finished Vol 1.. And I need to keep going! Its pretty good and I am excited to keep this up... Also its snowing today so this is a great series to get lost in :)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This volume is probably my favorite because you get to see more backstory on events, parts of the war, and how Alana and Marko came to love each other. Also how hazel was conceived. Meeting Markos's parents in the novel added somewhat of a twist and gave more of an eye-opener to how the hate from both sides runs so deep. Markos's dad melts my heart because he was so accepting and just wanted to meet his granddaughter.

Volume 2 - addicted!! 😀😀😀

50% in, I like this better than Volume 1. Is this graphic novel addictive or what?

Yay! Got this delivered today. ❤️❤️❤️

3.5/5

They are not that great but at the same time they are funny and entertaining. I like following Marko and Alana adventures.

For those of you, you doesn't know what the story is about. It's about two creatures, from different planet, falling in love and they have a baby. They're on the run. Both of they're planets hates each other.

Day 23: #pink #colormepretty
If you have been following me for awhile you will know I absolutely adore and love Saga, so naturally I had to go with this. A plus for being a pink cover is that this is actually my favorite cover out of them all (I love Marko dearly) I‘m dying waiting for it to come off of hiatus, but I am also patient as I don‘t want it rushed and ruined. Check it out, it‘s not for everyone but I love it.

I had forgotten how gleefully obscene this series is. It‘s a little gratuitous in that way but it‘s really quite compelling.

I enjoyed this second installment just as much as the first one. Good art, good characters, good action, and good humor. My only complaint is that the volumes are so short!

These are interesting, but also intensely weird. Plus, heavy topic.

This series is so good!!!!

Saga volume 2 is great!! I love that the story is centered around the love of a book.

Wow!! Just Wow!! How these characters went from meh (for me) in the first volume, to people I care about now is friggin amazing!! Both good guys and bad guys are well developed and interesting, with lots of shades of grey. 5 💥💥💥💥💥 out of 5.

Enjoyed Vol. 2 as much as the first one. The parts that aren‘t insanely weird are so true to life. Very relatable!

Funny moments, sad moments, gross moments, surprising ones too! Volume 2 has it all!
Ok...so now to the store for volume 3??? 😁😁😁😁😁😁

Decided it's time for a re-read of Saga. One of my favs ever!

Today is my birthday, and I got with my family yesterday to do a celebration and one of my sisters (I have 3 lol) got me the first 6 volumes of Saga. I initially read it digitally and I fell in love and have been wanting physical versions since. I am so happy she got me these! (Vol 2 cover is my absolute fav, I love Marco dearly)

Gosh, this really is very good, isn't it? I am utterly entranced! As my first experience of comic books/graphic novels I really don't think I could've had a finer introduction.

Also, in another first for me, I have been reading it on my phone rather than my Kindle. I had read half of Vol. 1 before it occurred to me that the illustrations might be in colour! Mind blown! The artwork really is fantastic.

And I low-key fancy Marko....

Last night I officially stopped being chickenshit and began my SAGA reread/catch-up. (I always procrastinate because I know it's gonna hurt.) This is my seventh time through the early volumes and I love them every bit as much as always.

I planned to photograph my beloved Funko Pops with each book, but winter light + backlight + Tiny Marko was kind of a disaster. Poop.

Vol 1 was my first graphic novel, and I am enjoying the continuation of this series. We meet and get to know Marko‘s family in this one, including his ex. We also get the backstory of Marko and Alana. On to Vol 3

Book 4 for #readathon

Oh la la! Ok Marko, I‘ll do whatever you say! 😍A little middle of the night reading on Hoopla! I woke up and couldn‘t sleep so I finished off Volume 2! Just as good as the first one! These illustrations are amazing!!!!! And I‘m enjoying the story line more and more! Now to try to sleep a little more! Reading helps me get sleepy! 📚

Todays plan: Spa with @maralinchen and Saga😍

Currently reading

Very much needed a bit of a change up to “cleanse”, and Saga was it. I‘m glad I stuck with it and moved on to the second one like everyone told me to. It does keep getting better! Already have the third one on the way. 👍🏻
