Graphic Novel review - Quiet girl in a noisy world by Debbie Tung

Quiet girl in a noisy world

By Debbie Tung



Paperback184 Pages / Published: 30/11/2017Publisher: Andrews McMeel Publishing 
ISBN: 9781449486068 



Quiet girl in a noisy world follows the life of Debbie Tung as she experiences the highs and lows of an introverted life.

The book beautifully shows the experiences of an introvert struggling with social commitments and managing to work in a social workplace all while juggling friendships and relationships.

The graphic novel compiles many short biographical stories over the range of three years in a loose narrative which leaves the reader relating with the writer as she exposes her perspective to these situations.

As I read this I found myself in love with the story and relating to many experiences as everything went on and had to disturb my partner many times to show her what was happening.

I would highly recommend this as it was such a pleasure to read and I think many people will relate to Debbie and her stories.

Unfortunately Dracs just isn't so good at showing that not everything you read online is true. This first volume of the Hotel Transylvania graphic novels is a great start to a new story line which looks like it may be aimed more at the kids but the adults will love it too. Stefan Petrucha has done a great job of bringing modern day problems such as not believing everything you see on the internet as truth into this story and manages to have it read as...

Book Review - The Little Red Wolf by Amelie Flechais

The Little Red Wolf By Amelie Flechais Buy it here Publisher: Lion Forge, LLc, The  ISBN: 9781941302453  Number of pages: 80  The Little Red Wolf is an original fairy tale for children and adults alike (maybe more for the parents) with following the little red wolf as he is sent out to deliver a rabbit for his grandmother who is to old to hunt. Upon his travels the little wolf may face some problems along the way bringing an entertaining experience matched with wonderful artwork to be enjoyed by the reader. This was a wonderful tale with inspiration from little red riding hood. I went in thinking that was what I was going to see in the story and it split off into a whole new story of it's own with a wonderful lesson that things are not always what they seem, along side to listen to your mother, especially when she tells you to avoid the humans who hate wolves. I felt this was maybe more of a darker tale for children so it's probably aimed more at eith...
