I consider my self a big fan of graphic novels because its an easier read than a regular book and also has pictures, which always is a plus! After hearing all sorts of amazing reviews and awards that went to the Bone series by: Jeff Smith, I had to check it out. Around a year ago, I received the entire Bone complete edition that spans 1300 pages. I'm one of the slowest readers I know, so when looking at this array of pages, it was tough to get started, but what else does one have to do on a 16 hour train ride then read. After that period, I read half the comic, all I can say is WOW, every review you read is true, it totally grabbed me in like a book has never done before, there is everything in this comic collection from action to drama to adventure and a little brotherly love (more like constant bashing from one another). Well like I said, I only got half way through during the train trip, I would have kept going but pneumonia really wasn't fun. After about a year had past, I picked the comic collection back up and it was like riding a bike. There was even more story, action, adventure, drama, and so much more. The more I read, the more intense the comic got and I was loving every minute of it. When I finished reading, it was bittersweet, but felt right. I will always own this book in my collection and will always recommend it. Bone is an easy read and excellent for the beginner to the advanced in graphic novels and comics. Take a look for yourself and pick up a copy of Bone! Thanks for reading the review, and keep checking back for more reviews!
