MMGM and #IMWAYR: Clash by Kayla Miller (plus a quick survey!)

Image
Hello everyone! I was very sad to miss everyone's posts last week, but there was just way  too much going on for me to get around to reading what people had to say. I hope I'll be able to fix that this week! Fortunately, I still have time to read and talk about books, and I'm here with a great one today: the graphic novel Clash  by Kayla Miller! Add it on Goodreads  or preview the illustrations OK, so I've finally decided that I completely love  this series of graphic novels! Kayla Miller has written five books in this series so far, as well as two spin-off graphic novels, and Clash  is the fourth book in the main series. Prior to now, I had read Click , Camp , and Act , the first three books in the series, and barring a mostly irrational reaction I had to Camp  (for reasons described in my review of Act ), I seriously enjoyed those books. But for some reason, I hadn't gotten around to this book yet. Well, now, book 5 is out—it's called Crunch , Earl Dizon at Th

#IMWAYR: Alone in Space: A Collection by Tillie Walden

Hello everyone! I'm so busy that I'm not entirely sure how I'm functioning, but I am, in part because I've been making myself read great books. In fact, I'm here today with a book of comics I've been waiting so  long to read: Alone in Space: A Collection  by Tillie Walden! Because this book is divided into sections, I'm doing the same with my review, and I must say that my OCD is way too excited as a result! Please note, this is a young adult (YA) book, and it contains mature content. Add it on Goodreads  or preview the illustrations! Some background... Unless you're completely brand new to my blog (which is totally allowed!), then you're already plenty acquainted with the fact that I love— love —graphic novels. I've read tons and tons and tons  of them, so it is a pretty darn important distinction that I consider Tillie Walden my absolute favorite graphic novelist. I was hooked by Are You Listening?  and subsequently devoured On a Sunbeam , her

MMGM and #IMWAYR: Besties: Work It Out, written by Kayla Miller and Jeffrey Canino and illustrated by Kristina Luu

Hi everyone! I'm still a mess when it comes to commenting on people's blogs, but I'm honestly just glad I've at least kept up my reading habits recently. I do want to thank everyone who filled out my comments survey last week—it gives me a lot of helpful info as I decide how to proceed with the Great Blogger Comment Fiasco of 2022! If you didn't get a chance to fill it out, it's still open, and I'd love your input. Moving along, today we have a review of a delightful  MG graphic novel: Besties: Work It Out , written by Kayla Miller and Jeffrey Canino and illustrated by Kristina Luu! Add it on Goodreads  or preview the illustrations I think my entire existence as a blogger is to solve the problem of books that look like they'll be one thing but are actually another, and Besties: Work It Out  definitely fits into this category! A bit of backstory: Last week, I was reviewing the fourth graphic novel in Kayla Miller's delightful Click  series, comprised
