Speak: The Graphic Novel by Laurie Halse Anderson
4.0
Maybe more like 3.5 stars?
As promised, the graphic novel is extremely similar to the regular book... except shorter and a bit more modern. I adore Emily Carroll’s art style and I highly recommend her other book. The creepier the scenes were (and the farther into this book) the better the art became, and I really adored that. However, the regular print book captures way more of Melinda’s personality and the fact that she’s actually super funny... and we definitely miss that in graphic novel version. I’m glad I picked it up though!
