Book Reviews of Suki, Vol. 1
Book Review: For the most part, agree with other reviewers
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not a huge graphic novel person - but occasionally I pick one up, get sucked into the plot, and can't put it down. Suki did exactly this.
Let me start out by saying this story is filled with moral (and textual) ambiguities. It's not a simplistic, nice story. But that's what makes it intriguing. It's a *real* coming of age story - believable, complex, and very sympathetic characters.
I pretty much agree with the other reviewers - very suspenseful, psychologically provocative, and artistically done. I gave it 4.5 stars out of 5.
I'll also add that I got a free copy of Snow Drops with my order - which was a pleasant surprise, and a similarly good story. Also a graphic novel for adults, about adolescent relationships & high school. Not as morally complex as Suki, but actually a bit more dramatic and a lot more to the story - part love story, part mystery, part drama. I also give SNOW DROPS 4.5 stars.
Summary of Suki, Vol. 1
Hina is an innocent young schoolgirl, straightforward and honest with her feelings. When a new neighbor moves in next door, she is instantly drawn to him, although he seems to be aloof. The next day at school, her new neighbor turns out to be the new substitute teacher - Asou Shiro. His presence creates a commotion among the all-girls school. Hina likes the simple things in life - holding hands, hugging cats, walking home together, etc. And being able to experience these things with Asou fills Hina with a warm fuzzy feeling - is this love?General Books
