The Antler Boy and Other Stories by Jake Parker
3.0
This is a really cute collection of short stories, and I generally had a nice reading experience. I would recommend picking this up if you're looking for a quick and light graphic novel/anthology.
I enjoyed the wide variety of art styles and thought it added an interesting dynamic to the storytelling. Some of the stories felt a little disjointed, some of them lacked a cohesive plot, and some of them left me with more questions than answers by the end of the collection, but they all had an interesting premise and cast of characters.
The ending chapter tied each story together in an interesting and unexpected way and definitely helped make the anthology feel more intentional.
Overall, I had a nice time.
