Jenn's Book Reviews

The first book in the Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series. Before picking up this novel for school, I had never read a graphic novel and had never planned to. I honestly only read this graphic novel because it was mandatory in one of my English lit classes. The novel itself was fast paced and somewhat enjoyable. Even though this graphic novel series is enjoyed and loved by many, I just couldn't get into the story line. For me the plot was simply okay and nothing more. Compared to the movie, I enjoy the book a lot more, since for me, it's easier to follow the story line. This book did however opened my eyes to the fun and fast paced life of graphic novels. I gave this book 3 out of 5 stars because, as I stated before, I found the story to be okay and the plot to be uninteresting. I definitively recommend this book for younger people who haven't yet found joy in reading and need some easy but interesting reads to help them get into the wonderful art of reading. With all that being said, I highly doubt I will continue on with the Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series.
