Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys The Big Lie Review

Goodreads Amazon I grew up reading Nancy drew and when I saw this in the read now section of NetGalley I knew I wanted to try it. This was a lot darker and edgier read. The mystery kept me wanting to keep reading!I also thought the artwork was unique and dark. I liked this and I plan on checking out the next volume. I received an ecopy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Anne of Green Gables : A Graphic Novel Review

Goodreads Amazon I read Anne of Green Gables when I was in middle school and it became one of my favorites. Being a fellow redhead I related to Anne's feeling about her red hair. I also really loved her imagination and there is so much about family and friendship. Anne of Green Gables is just so magical. I was thrilled when I found out there was a graphic novel of green gables. I couldn't wait to dive back into one of my favorite books! I loved how beautiful the art was! It really brought Anne and her story to life! I really enjoyed this beautiful graphic novel! I received an ecopy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
