This is definitely the saddest installment of the volumes I’ve read so far, and it definitely made me tear up a few times although I’ve already read Fangirl tons of times - a testament to how the manga’s art style and writing work together to create true emotion. The sweet moments are sweeter, the funny moments are funnier, and the sad moments are sadder. I just love what the art style does for the story, allowing it to take shape in its own unique way that sets it apart from the original source material. Very excited to read the final volume!

I never read the book so I don't know how they compare, but I love this manga adaption. It makes you feel a lot and Cath is such a great character. I relate a lot to her trying to find her own voice.
The art style is nice as well and the format is easy to follow.
