A review by kiara_seoul
Speak: The Graphic Novel by Laurie Halse Anderson

dark medium-paced

4.0

This story is a lot like Junji Ito’s No Longer Human. An adaptation of a novel turning it into a visual medium. So many of my thoughts from No Longer Human can be applied here. 

It really captures the pain and emotions felt by the narrator. The detail is incredible. And I love how experimental and disturbing the art can get.

My only problem with this graphic novel and the novel itself was the ending. It still leaves a lot of loose ends, which is always a pet peeve of mine when it comes to endings.
