Berlin Book One: City of Stones by Jason Lutes
2.0
This graphic novel had some good and bad elements.
It was educational about different things: politics, art, history and people living in Berlin at the time. That must be the best elements, it gave me some extra info about all of those things.
The bad part would be the sudden changes of story lines that aren't always that clear. It felt like it wanted to tell too many stories at once. But actually the last half of the book was better, because it felt more controlled and showed more off where it wanted the story to go.
I wasn't sure I wanted to read the second book, but after finishing it, I think I will, because after finishing it I liked it a lot more than when I started reading it.
