Brightly Woven: The Graphic Novel
by Alexandra Bracken, Leigh Dragoon
I was thrilled to see that Brightly Woven had been adapted into a graphic novel, but it left me feeling disappointed unfortunately. I'm a big fan of the original novel and felt that the graphic novel was written like a children's book rather than a work for young adults.
Many of the plot points were dulled down or simply skipped over - North loses his snark in this adaptation and so we don't get to see his character grow, Owain becomes a BOOKSHOP owner rather than a drunk aspiring knight, and we lose the slow burn romance between Syd and North (the scene where North catches Syd before poison kills her is completely omitted.
Overall, a poor shadow of the original.
