Source: I own a copy of this book.Note: These are my personal opinions. I received no outside person comments or opinions.I really liked this book.I liked how this book wasn't made into two volumes like some graphic novels are. I'm glad that this book didn't cut a lot of things out either. Actually, it didn't cut anything out.If you've already read the original Beautiful Creatures novel then you're sure to love this because this graphic novel follows the book exactly with the dialogue. TheA few reasons why I bought this book:1.) The artist, Cassandra Jean is one of my fave illustrator/artist and she have also drawn doodles and fanarts for The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare (specifically The Shadowhunter's Codex), which I absolutely love 2.) YA novels that are adapted into graphic novels/mangas interests me 3.) Plus this book was like 80% half the price and it's hardbound.I've read the original novel 2 years back and it was pretty okay, I guess. But having it adapted
I loved it! I know I say that a lot but I love books. The art was beautiful. And I loved the romance between Ethan & Lena. It was adorable. The plot twists had me hooked and the whole story was intriguing. A perfect blend of Rome and the paranormal. Though I wish Macon didn't die, I really liked him :(
***Disclaimer: I have not read Beautiful Creatures nor plan to. This read was out of pure curiosity.***1. The art was obviously awesome-like most graphic novels 2. That sort of distracted us on how weak the actual story was3. It was pretty confusing at times especially towards the end 4. But, It gave me enough information to understand the basic story but not enough 'anything' to make me want to pick up the novel5. Atleast the art was good
I've not really been fond of a lot of the novels being translated into graphic novels and this is another one that falls into that category. The artwork is terrible and I just felt like some of the parts edited out could have stayed in the book. Could have been better and could have been worse, but if they do the next book I won't be picking it up.
It was fun to essentially reread the book in graphic novel form. I didn't especially love the art style in this one but it was okay. All in all, I remember why I wasn't an uber fan of the book series but I still enjoyed continuing with my graphic novel binge reading.
After reading (and re-reading) the preview, I just couldn't resist this book anymore.I devoured this book in one sitting and I loved it!I almost forgot him much I loved the actual book and it makes me want to continue with the series.The drawings are beautiful and I wish there was more :(I would definitely recommend this one to the people who enjoyed the series!
