Giant Days by Non Pratt, Boom! Studios
5.0
*I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*
I initially started this book with a lot of trepidation. I absolutely love the Giant Days graphic novel series, and was very worried that it wouldn't translate well into novel format. However, I am happy to say that I was wrong!
The story follows university freshmen and new friends Daisy, Esther and Susan. Each character has their own distinct storyline that ties well into the plot of the book: Esther is trying to show her fellow Goth classmate that they should become best friends, Susan grapples to open up about her past, and Daisy has combated her social anxiety by signing up for every club imaginable. What happens next is just as hilarious and heartwarming as the original series. Since I read the graphic novels before picking this up, I was able to picture the plot as a comic in my mind's eye. I would definitely recommend this book for any lovers of the comics or anyone interested in a quirky college story!
