I bought this book for the amazing cover art, and so, just like Jon Snow, I didn't know nothing about this story.

A story about friendship, love, loyalty, trust, respect and honor. Enemies can be friends and the people we trust may not be what we thought they were.

Nimona is such a strong character with amazing powers... I love her!

This was such an unexpected read! So good. So pure. Perfect!

My first read for this round of the #QueerLitReadathon, and it was fabulous! I sometimes struggle with how fast I read graphic novels, as it doesn’t give me as much time to sink into a story. But this world building was so unique and noteworthy that I didn’t have that issue. I loved the blending of medieval power dynamics with a modern day superhero/villian plot structure. Like all the fun of The Incredibles but with swords and armor and dragons! The exploration of dangerous institutional structures is quite timely and adds a layer of complexity to what is also a fun, comical adventure. It’s both lighthearted and full of heart, if that makes sense. I love these characters, and if a movie does actually come out, I will watch that in a second!
