Miles Morales: Shock Waves by Justin A. Reynolds

4.0

TBR, YOU ARE GOING DOWN!

This was a fun look at preteen Miles Morales, brought to life by Justin Reynold's writing. The number of pop culture references were appreciated and also highlighted how many years its been since i was a wee teen. Some things never change - like artist block, which is relatable and the inability to dance (you're not alone, Miles).

This graphic novel may be short but it covers a depth of topics like balancing all aspects of your life, environmental disasters, capitalism, family, friendships and dealing with creative blocks. All in all, a fun time for me and the physical tbr is down a book!

BTW, I got this book for two reasons - one, im a huge fan of the franchise and two, ITS AUTHORED BY JUSTIN REYNOLDS!! I'm making a pledge (on goodreads!) to read more of his work since Long Way Down made me emotional in all the best ways and I'm excited to see where Miles goes next.
