A review by jackelz
Midnight Radio by Iolanda Zanfardino

5.0

Four people around the United States, all living very different lives, are all changed by a mysterious late-night radio broadcast. Each tale speaks to different social issues: LGBTQIA+ rights, racism, social network addiction, and the difficult decision between settling down versus following your dreams.

Mike is dealing with a hacker intent on disrupting the pharmaceutical website he works for.
Joanne is struggling to connect to her life and the people around her after a tragedy.
Seika has fled from Japan to America for a new life but finds it hard to forge her own path.
Stephen has stopped speaking out loud and pulled away from friends and family. 

I became a fan of Iolanda Zanfardino because of Alice in Leatherland, now I’ll order anything they create. This was fun to find already on my bookshelf!

What I loved most about this story was the art and how each character had their own polychromatic color palette. It was so easy to transition from character to character because of this, too. I was expecting more character overlap, but then I was glad it didn’t feel overdone. I liked how they all stood out on their own. I could’ve kept on reading these characters.
