This is such a worthy adaptation of this text and offers a really incredible new way to view the source material. I loved reading this now, in this particular moment as it offers a foiled frustration to my reality and a balm that lie goes on. OEB is and will always be everything.

This is one of my favorite stories and to see it turned into a graphic novel is beautiful.

This was a difficult book to adapt to a graphic novel and they did a great job. Still as challenging a book as ever.

This is just such a brilliant adaptation of the book. I tried reading the book and given the current situation, It was too hard for me to do right now.

The graphic novel gave me away in and did a really nice job. Now it’s time to read the book and the series.
