Everyone's a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too by Jomny Sun

5.0

Before I start: I’ve read this book at the best possible moment for this book. I wasn’t feeling so well and I really needed something like this. It helped me to feel better; after I read this, I felt refreshed. So yeah, maybe I would have rated this different if I had read it any other moment – but I didn’t.

This graphic novel follows the story of an alien, Jomny, who comes to earth to study humans, but in fact studies any other creature except for humans. Jomny doesn’t realize this himself and he is sure that he has befriended humans.

The plot is really simple, but sometimes things just don’t need to be difficult. The characters in this were amazing; I could really relate to some of them: especially the hedgehog that wanted to create art – I’m an aspiring writer, so yeah. The snail also really got to my heart. And sometimes all you need is nothing :’)

What made this little comic so good, for me, were the quotes. Some of them were deep, some of them didn’t really make sense and others were funny as hell – never will I stop laughing with nothing jokes. On the other hand, the messages this book gave, were very strong. My personal favorites were the ones of the being and the becoming – the now and the future.

I cried and I laughed and when a book can do that, it just deserves a special place in my heart. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.
