Comics Will Break Your Heart by Faith Erin Hicks
3.0
I really liked the characters and the Romeo & Juliet vibes. But there wasn’t enough drama or information about certain things.
What I didn’t like was how rushed & “perfect” the ending was. The stakes in the story didn’t even really feel real and then there was no fallout from anything at the end.
I was really looking forward to this book and I wanted to love it so much because it was adorable but it didn’t hit all the plot elements I was looking for. I loved the comic book aspect, the characters, the families, etc but it was missing some more tension and stakes. It was missing something that would have made this a 5 star read for me.
