Life of Melody by Mari Costa
4.0
Life of Melody is the second graphic novel I’ve bought that came out of the Seven Seas + Hiveworks collaboration (the other, which I reviewed not too long ago, was Persephone).
In LoM, we follow two supernatural entities: Razzmatazz, a fairy from another realm on a quest to raise a fairytale from childhood so that he can finally do his job correctly, and Bon, a beast from another realm that has wandered the world in search of at least one human that won’t be scared of him (as we learn in the extra, not quite in the canon storyline). When these very different men come across a crying child in the woods at the exact same time, they do the only thing that makes sense: pretend to be a married human couple so they can raise their newfound daughter together.
Life of Melody is a sweet story featuring found families, love in unfamiliar places, and two disaster dads constantly flirting with each other despite proclaiming to hate one another. This is a wonderfully vibrant graphic novel good for anyone looking for the sort of read that takes away your worries for a little while.
