I read this all the way back in February for Valentine‘s Day! This was a fun and diverse collection of romance comics. Not my usual genre but cute art and stories nonetheless 💘

Clwojick I really enjoyed this one ♥️ 6y

My #tbr for this week.
I‘m going to finish The Friendly Jane Austen (making progress in my year of Austen goal).
I‘m also going to finish Darker Shade of Magic as part of a informal buddy read with @sprainedbrain (tho I think she‘s probably finished with book 3 by now 😄).
I‘m starting The Complete Persepolis for #LitsyGetsGraphic and look forward to discussing it later this week!
The other two are bonus just for fun reads. 😁

sprainedbrain Yeah, I am. 😳😬 Can‘t wait to discuss... I sort of loved the whole dang series. 7y
Eyelit @sprainedbrain lol I knew it! I‘ll def check in when I‘m done with the first - and will follow up as I get to the other two. Glad that you loved it. Bodes well for me! 😁 7y

Okay, let's be real for a minute. Nose kisses are actually the cutest. Maybe even better than forehead kisses.

👏👏👏this graphic novel was great, but I definitely preferred the first of the four stories in it. ❤️️❤️️❤️️

Ruined is a historical romance short story included in the Fresh Romance anthology, which I read and loved last year.❤ Brought it with me the other day so @minavesguerra can borrow it. I'm interested in reading more romance in graphic novel format, do you guys have any recs? Also, Fresh Romance Vol. 2 from Emet Comics is already out and I need to find a way to get it! Pretty sure it's not available in Manila bookstores.😭

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 | Ok in light of all the dark stuff going on...I needed something sweet and light. This was it! 4 different love stories, basically cute one-shots and all the happy feels. My favorite has to be The Only One, about 2 people and how they met and knew each other three different times...very When Harry Met Sally!

I loved this! It's an anthology of romance stories in graphic form. My favorite was the one pictured here, Ruined. It was actually the one least like the others in the collection, which all had paranormal elements to them. I enjoyed them all, but this one really did it for me. This one fits in more with the historical romance novels I enjoy. It ended with a To Be Continued, and I really want more!

leslieisreading @RowReads1 oooh thanks for the link! I didn't know they had a current kickstarted going, that's fantastic! And funded, yay! I'll probably want to support it regardless. 8y

I liked almost every single story in this collaboration. A high school forbidden love between women. A Regency romance with a young woman with a new husband; will they, won't they? A waitress match maker with magical abilities. A play on Beauty and the Beast.

I read this in several sittings over an extended amount of time because I wanted to savor it. It's a beautifully produced volume of very different love stories, and I adored them all in their own way. (But if I had to pick a favorite, it's gotta be Ruined. I mean. Regency romance. Comic format. Come on, guys.)

Chachic I loved Ruined so much!! I need the next installment ASAP. This was such a good anthology, I hope they produce more volumes. I believe a new publisher has taken over it. 8y

Picked up this graphic novel anthology after seeing @Chachic post some pages from the book. It's not a format I'm comfortable with, so it's taking me a while just to get the gist of the first story, School Spirit by Kate Leth. But the illustrations are gorgeous, and the book just feels wonderful, and I know this will sound naff, but I love the smell of the pages. ☺️ #romantsy #graphicnovel #anthology

Chachic Oh no, sorry to hear you're having issues with the format! I personally loved it because it was the first time I've encountered romance in graphic novel form. My favorite in this anthology was Ruined.😊 8y
BookThingo @Chachic I always have trouble with graphic novels, so it's not this book in particular. I used to love comics as a child, so I'm not sure what happened! 8y
Chachic I wonder why? I hope you still enjoy this though! I've read a few graphic novels over the years but only started really getting into them recently. 8y

The Ruby Equation was a fun read with just a hint of magic. It's short but I liked how it focused on how messy human emotions, relationships and love can be. I thought the cafe setting was cute. As with the rest of stories in this anthology, I felt that the art complemented the story.

Ruined was SO GOOD! First time I've read a historical romance in graphic novel form and I loved it. It's a marriage of convenience romance and this first installment was a great introduction for both the hero and heroine. I can't wait to find out more about them. The art was a visual treat, perfect for the story. Where is the sequel?! I tried searching for info about Fresh Romance Vol. 2 but couldn't find anything.

Finished reading School Spirit and I thought it was a lot of fun. It's a complex and diverse YA that was easy to get into and had likable characters. I'm glad these teens had the courage to stand up for themselves! I thought the artwork was perfect for it, and I would be interested in reading more from both the author and the artist.

Oh man, I loved almost everything about this one! I think my expectations were a little high for the last story since I'd heard some gushing but that was the only one that I didn't love (the art was beautiful, the story just didn't pack the punch I needed). The rest were amazing and I'm desperately waiting for the rest of Ruined and a sequel to School Spirit is 100% necessary!

MarriedtoMrT The rest of Ruined. Yes! 8y

This was a cute graphic anthology! My favorite is a tie between the "School Spirit" and "The Ruby Equation." I liked the former's romance the most, but the latter's art and setup were my absolute favorite. The colors are so PRETTY. (My photo, sadly, makes them look darker.) The other two stories were okay...they were missing the great personality that were in the others.

Have we started a Landfall Freight support group yet? I can dedicate myself to sharing all the rad female-centric comics and graphic novels I find, but who's gonna surprise me with the same? #riplandfallfreight
This was the final shipment. Sigh. 💔

theshrinkette Wait nooooo whyyyy??? 8y
moranadatter Want to start a comics exchange similar to Litsy Goes Postal? 8y
Carol @theshrinkette I'd have to dig out the letter and verify (got it several weeks ago and didn't post until now because of potential spoilers for international peeps) but I believe it was a combination of the two sisters spending a ton of time on this that wasn't sustainable, and also the subscriber numbers were too low. I'm pretty heartbroken and it sounds like you are, too. 💔 8y
See All 13 Comments
Carol @kmdartist possibly! Are you interested? 8y
moranadatter @Carol I'm willing to give it a try. I wasn't involved in LitsyGoesPostal so I have no idea how much work it was to set up or even all of the details of what they're doing, but we might be able to work out out own version of a comics exchange. 8y
Carol @kmdartist let me see if I can get some more details and see if there's interest. Stay tuned! 8y
moranadatter @Carol Sounds good. Alternatively, we could reinvent the wheel to have it be more like a gift/recommendation service to keep it closer to the spirit of Landfall. I'll think of a proposal for that while you gather info. 8y
Carol @kmdartist I actually like that idea better. A straight up gift exchange of comics and graphic novels. 💖💖 8y
moranadatter @Carol How about a small group of people willing to commit to participating for a set period of time? If it is 3 months, we'd need 4 willing participants. Over the three month period, we'd each send one package per month. Each month, we'd be sending a package to a different person. Package would be one recent-ish graphic novel, one recent-ish comic, some small misc items like stickers or pins, and a sucker. We'd also receive as many as we sent. 8y
moranadatter @Carol We'd need to do a survey to get an idea of what people like to read. It would give us a chance to play curator/reader's advisor. 8y
Carol @kmdartist ah so more like Landfall in all ways. I really, really like it. Are you in the US? We could keep it all inside the country to keep shipping costs down. Flat rate USPS box, probably want to encourage first issues or volumes of sending ongoing series so readers aren't confused. Yes? I'm getting crazy excited about this... 8y
moranadatter @Carol Yes, I'm in the US. And definitely! Emphasis on female leads and creators? Maybe a letter explaining our picks? 8y
moranadatter @Carol The more I think about this plan, the better I like it. 8y
