I don‘t read many graphic novels so I don‘t know that I have a favorite, but this melancholy, slightly creepy YA ghostly tale was really good & the illustrations were gorgeous.🖤

#Watchman #AlanMoore #DaveGibbons #1001Books

I own this graphic novel which is on the 1001 Books to Read Before You Die. It is a murder mystery, an alternate world sci-fi epic and a psychological study of power and corruption in the form of a comic. I need to read this soon!

Brazen: Rebel Ladies Who Rocked the World | P�n�lope Bagieu

#FebruaryFeels Day 25: This definitely falls into the category of #FaveGraphicNovel. Bagieu‘s voice is facetious and pert but never jarring nor intrusive. It was just plain witty, fun, and oh-so-refreshing. I am sure if the women had their way, they would have said their dialogues the way that Bagieu has given voice to them here: with an insouciant air that is tinged with defiance. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-jHI

Kaspar: Prince of Cats | Michael Morpurgo

Technically not a #graphicnovel but it is a novel with beautiful graphics. Plus it's the story of a black kitty, my fave! So for tonight it is my #favegraphicnovel

The Sandman 1: Preludes and Nocturnes | Neil Gaiman

I've read illustrated novels, serial comics, comic strips, but not graphic novels yet! This is on my TBR list (random person at bookstore highly recommended it 😀) ~

Question: I tried starting but became SO overwhelmed with all the data to take in 😣 How do you keep track of the storyline without getting lost in all the non-uniform words and pictures? ~

DeborahSmall I read this years ago and it was great. But after not trading a graphic novel in years I struggled when reading fight club 2 for the same reason you're saying! 😩 8y

bmsddk @DeborahSmall Oh no! Were you able to get back into it? 8y

LauraJ @DeborahSmall You may have struggled because it wasn't all that good. 8y

LauraJ Take your time. The best graphic novels are more of an experience than a read. 8y

JustTrish The short answer is - sometimes you don't😁 It's ok to read it 2 or 3 times to catch what you missed. I had to do that with Watchmen. I loved it - but it does bombard you. 8y

bmsddk @LauraJ @JustTrish Thanks! Good to know to give it a decent time allotment. 8y

DeborahSmall Watchmen was my first graphic novel. It's fantastic! @LauraJ I think it was more the format, the years of reading only novels, I felt I needed to concentrate more,but other distractions like kids don't help. I plan on trying another. My son has a great collection, I should find something to give another go. @bmsddk I did give up on it but had too many distractions at the time. Next time round I'll make sure I have some peace! 8y

Hornsby78 Another person here HIGHLY RECOMMENDING Sandman. This is how I learned to read comics: Let your eye naturally go where it wants to read. If you get to the bottom of the page and what you read doesn't make any sense, go back to the top and start over. MOST comics are read right to left, one page at a time, but you get different ones now and then. Comics taught me to loosen up a little with my reading. Go with the flow. 8y

bmsddk @Hornsby78 That's a good idea, to go where the eye wants, thank you! Graphic novels are like comics amped up, haha 😅 8y

eric.small This was my first graphic novel. It can be a bit overwhelming at times. I would encourage you to give it another shot when you can concentrate a bit more. It is well worth your time. 8y

beccaeve There is an annotated version of the Sandman comics. My library has it and that's what I've been reading. It's super helpful!! 8y

bmsddk @eric.small Thanks for the advice! I'll try saving it for when I can focus on it. @beccaeve Thanks, I'll look into that resource! 8y
