Level Up by Gene Luen Yang

4.0

I'm on a kick, reading as much from Yang, because this guy never seems to let me down. The art was different that in [book:American Born Chinese|118944] and [book:Boxers & Saints|17261194], less vivid, but I still liked the colors and such. (Is it that Yang himself illustrated those aforementioned books, but someone else illustrated this one? Did he draw for those others? I honestly know nothing.)

Anywho, this story was short and sweet, and obviously, inevitably, I got a tad emotional. Ever since ABC (whoa, just realized that acronym is the first three letters of the alphabet...) and even [book:The Eternal Smile: Three Stories|4437831], I can't help but expect a shocking twist in all of Yang's book. This one didn't have twist; more like an emotional reveal, which I appreciated. Also, the patented humor was there, and as always, I was glad for it.

All in all, really enjoyed this. I honestly love graphic novels so much, and I just gotta keep reading them!
