Snow, rain, snow, rain, this sucks. Almost at the darkest time of the year and then a change, yay

............................

Jo, April, Mal, Molly and Ripley are five best pals determined to have an awesome summer together... and they’re not gonna let any insane quest or an array of supernatural critters get in their way!

My thoughts:
I liked the illustrations, they were nice and cool. But, to be honest, I have no idea what happened, it felt confusing, jumpy. The story did not work for me.

Oh great, what a short review.

Ok...5 girls, I can't remember their names. One had a hat, one was cute, one was tall, one street, can't remember the next one. They are girl scouts, they find some weird paranormal stuff, stuff happens.

Anyway, good illustrations. But will not read more.

  1. Great pictures. Love the review. LOL I can see why you picked it up. I love the cover and it would be one that I would be interested in. I don't think I will grab it though.

  2. Your weather is all over the place, but glad you got your workouts in.

    Sometimes, graphic stories are confusing for me, too.

  3. Love all that walking/biking. So love the look of snow/rain, but I know, when too much of it, not that great in helping getting outdoors. Love the photos.

  4. We've only had snow once so far and then a lot of rain. I think that will change soon. Good job on the exercise!

  12. I was actually curious about Lumberjanes, it's always popping up on my list of recommendations for comics. I was thinking about picking it up, but maybe I'll buy some of my more higher priority comics first.
