Fairest: In All the Land by Bill Willingham
3.0
Really, this is 3.5 stars for me.
This is the first graphic novel I've ever read (I've never read a comic book either), and I enjoyed it enough to read it all in one sitting (minus two breaks to take the in-potty-training puppy outside), but I kept forgetting to stop and really take in the graphics, and I was a bit thrown sometimes by the differences in styles between artists. I also tend to really pull away from graphic art. Still, after reading this I felt a bit as I did after I read my first steampunk bookâas if I would have enjoyed it better if I had more exposure to the genre. So I'll probably read another few from this series.
