I really struggled with this one. The majority of the rating was for the art, which I quite enjoyed. The story? Not so much. I don't know if I'm just a bit slow but I could not for the life of me figure out what was going on. I admit to having watched the Bodies tv show prior to reading this and picking this up specifically because I had seen the show. Anyone who does the same, a warning: THIS IS NOTHING LIKE THE SHOW. The characters are semi the same, but the plot is completely different. I wonder if I had not seen the show first, if I'd have a different perspective of this book? Either way, this was very hard to follow, but had gorgeous illustrations, so proceed with caution!
