Yes, you are right about that (and Theresa about Lemony Snicket). That's probably what did it!


I didn’t read any graphic novels. I keep telling myself I should try them more often but rarely get to it. Ah well. There will be other opportunities

At the moment I can’t even think of any funny graphic novels. Cue quavering old lady voice : “In my day, comics were funny. Whatever happened to Archie and Veronica?� Most now seem to focus on action and fantasy, and are quite dark.

I really did enjoy the Heartstopper: Volume One books. They are adorable but not too juvenile.
I also liked Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic.

LOL! Ok, that made me laugh.
I like graphic novels and don't usually have an issue with dark or violent.
"Fun Home" is good!

I read 3 for Steampunk, 2 were ok (A Master of Djinn and The Watchmaker of Filigree Streetand 1 horrible (Monstress, Volume 1: Awakening). So I didn't become a fan of that genre (even though I like fantasy, sci-fi and historical fiction, which are elements of Steampunk.)

Thanks, Jason!
That's over 5 books/person (on average). And I only read 1! There must have been others who also only read 1, which takes that average higher for the others.
ETA: I guess this is where the graphic novels come into play. Fast to read and lots in a series for one person to read.
