My review:
I love the artwork in this book. I think that's probably my favorite thing about it. Except for when they're supposed to have scars, like Phillip, who has them all over his body. It just doesn't look good--it doesn't look anything like scars. But other than that, I love it!
The story is pretty good. With graphic novels, you usually don't get bogged down in details or anything extra. This one is pretty much all dialogue, with Anita's thoughts thrown in here and there. I've read Guilty Pleasures (the novel) and I think I still like the story better in graphic novel form. The book didn't really do it for me. I can't honestly say that this is great reading, but for me, with graphic novels, the artwork factors heavily into how much I like the book.
