Top Ten Graphic Novels on my TBR

Top Ten Graphic Novels on my TBR

January 31, 2017 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 14 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone join as you please. This week’s topic is: Top Ten Graphic Novels on my TBR. 

I don’t read many graphic novels. I don’t really know the reasons, but they’ve never really caught my attention. I’ve read a couple over the years, but they are mainly graphic novels to books that I’ve already read. So here are some that I hope to get to in the near future. Hopefully.

Graphic Books 1

Nimona by Noelle Stevenson: I’ve had this for a while now and I just haven’t had the time to pick it. All I’ve heard is great things about this one and my mission is to read it this year.

Wires and Nerves, Volume 1 by Marissa Meyer (Goodreads Author) and Douglas Holgate (Illustrations): If you know me well, then you would know that I love the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. So when I heard that there was going to be graphic novels following Iko. I knew that I was in. Plus there is going to be appearances from Cinder and the gang. Coming January 31st.

Wonderwomen: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo: If you didn’t know. I love superheroes. It’s something that I grew up watching and I will never get tired of. One of my favourite heroes is Wonder Women. Firstly because she is a women and secondly, she has an amazing whip. So when I heard about Leigh Bardugo bringing this one out – I knew that I needed it. Coming August 2017. Update: I think this is actually a novel, not a graphic novel. My mistake.  

Graphic Books 2

Ms Marvel, Vol 1: No Normal by G. Willow Wilson (Author) and Adrian Alphona (Artist): Again, I love superheroes and I’ve heard some pretty great things about this one. Plus it’s another woman saving the world – well I hope.
Saga, Volume 1 by Brian K. Vaughan (Writer), Fiona Staples (Artist): This is probably my most heard about graphic novel. And I need to see what the fuss is all about. It sounds intriguing and totally something I will like.
Alex + Ada, Vol 1 by Jonathan Luna and Sarah Vaughn: I’ve only briefly heard about this one, but it sounds quite the tale. And I think that I might just like it. There isn’t much on the synopsis online, however, I am intrigued.
Graphic Books 3

Sweet Tooth, Volume 1: Out of the Deep Woods by Jeff Lemire (Writer, Artist, Water Colourist), José Villarrubia (Colourist), Carlos M. Mangual (Letterer): I don’t know much about this one, but my friend suggested it. It doesn’t sound like something that I would normally pick up, however, I am very interested.

Death Note, Vol. 1: Boredom by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata (Illustrator): This is again another one that I know nothing about, but have heard some great things. I am not entirely sure that I will like it, but I want to give it a go.

Lumberjanes, Vol. 1: Beware the Kitten Holy by Noelle Stevenson, Grace Ellis, Shannon Watters and Brooke A. Allen (Illustrator): Another one that I’ve heard a lot about and I have a feeling that I am going to really like this one. Nevertheless, with the tagline of ‘Friendship to the Max!’ I am totally in.

Graphic Books 4

Chew, Vol. 1: Taster’s Choice by  John Layman, Rob Guillory (Illustrator): Another one on the list that I don’t know much about. Can you see a theme going on here? In saying that, this one sounds interesting and I cannot wait to give it a go.

And that is it for this week! Have you read any of these? Did you enjoy them, or did you not? Are they on your TBR? Do you think that I will like any other graphic novels? Let’s Chat!

    I hope you like Chew! 😀 It’s about detective Tony Chu and he can eat things and immediately know their history/origin. Also, chicken is illegal. As you can imagine this comic/graphic novel is very unique, weird and funny!

    DEATHNOTE IS TOO MANY FEELS! I am just saying. Saga is really good. Ms. Marvel is also on our list.

    I did just add Alex + Ada to my TBR though.

    I’ve been seeing a lot of stuff around about Wires and Nerves! It looks really good and the art looks amazing. Do I need to read the Lunar Chronicles to read W&N? I read the first ages ago and didn’t continue it because of reasons I don’t remember, haha!

    Leigh’s new Wonder Woman book makes me curious as does this new addition of her character in the DC Comics world. Like you, I’m a big fan of superheroes! Also, “Ms. Marvel” looks interesting. 🙂

    Yay for another Chew fan!! Isn’t Chew great? I love the outrageous-ness of it. Great picks in Nimona and Saga as well, the others I’ve got on my TBR list 🙂

    Wait…I didn’t know Wonder Woman was going to be a graphic novel. Awk. I’m kind of disappointed actually…I thought it was going to be a full-length novel.😂 BUT ANYWAY! GRAPHIC NOVELS ARE STILL COOL! I don’t read many because my library doesn’t really carry them. But I looooved Death Note! It’s totally mind twisty and awesome. And Ms. Marvel is the definition of epic.

      Maybe it is a novel, not a graphic. Maybe I am confused. Actually I am confused haha

    I am so excited for Wires and Nerve! I don’t read so much graphic novels (more of a manga person) but I’m going to read that because of Lunar Chronicles!! Death Note was an okay read for me. The concept was really amazing and it had its good amount of twists but I really feel that it just went down when the 2nd half started, oh well. That may just be me though.

    Ou I had no idea Marissa Meyer wrote a book that turned into a graphic novel! I’ll have to add it on my TBR.

    Have a good week!

    I definitely feel like I should be jumping on the graphic novel bandwagon. I definitely plan on reading Wires and Nerve in the near future. I will jump at any chance to check in with my Rampion crew.

    I think the Bardugo Wonder Woman looks great even if it’s not a graphic novel. 🙂 And I loved Alex and Ada.

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?

January was a really solid reading month. I read s January was a really solid reading month. I read some books that had been on my tbr for some time, reread a few things that peaked my interest. I also started a few new series. And just had a good time!
