My Boyfriend is a Monster: Under His Spell by Marie P. Croall, 127 pages

A cute teen graphic novel featuring a teen girl too focused for boys until a fae kingling drops into her life. This wasn't my favorite in the series so far, but considering it didn't take too long to read, it wasn't bad.

Red Moon by DAvid McAdoo, 200 pages

This is a graphic novel following a little dog who leaves a neglectful family, and discovers a powerful force inside him. There is a something awful coming and he must try to save the animals, but does that include humans. Throw in some murderous crows (like the word play?), and this graphic novel is an outstanding read. The artwork is dark and gripping, and the storyline had me eagerly turning each page. I feel guilty for not being nicer to my dogs, they might save my life someday.

My Boyfriend is a Monster: Made for Each Other by Paul Storrie, 126 pages

Frankenstein is reset in modern day Alaska in this fun and quirky graphic novel. Teen girls will definitely fall in love with monsters as long as they're tall, dark and handsome. I really enjoyed these books as a fast and great read. The artwork and storyline are outstanding.

Zombies Calling by Faith Erin Hicks, 112 pages

This happens to be the very last graphic novel in the teen section so it happened to catch my eye at the end of the shelf. Joss is a college student in Canada who is worried about finals, the amount of her student loans, and loves all things England. She fights off zombies one evening but her roommates don't believe her. But luckily Joss is familiar with "The Rules" of surviving a zombie attack so she knows how to make it against the undead.
This was a funny zombie comic, light-hearted, making fun of the zombie genre in a great way. A great way to spend an half hour.

Elmer by Gerry Alanguilan, 140 pages

This is probably one of the oddest books I have read so far this year. I saw it mentioned on my Unshelved library comic strip and was intrigued. The premise of this graphic novel is that on February 3, 1979, chickens gained intelligence. There were massive uprisings at some places with chickens running rampant and killing people (but considering how chickens are killed at a poultry plant do you blame them?) People reacted to the chickens talking by killing many of them. It took about 6 months for the world governments to give chickens equal rights to humans. That is till about 20 years later when the bird flu hit, and chickens were killed by the hundreds of thousands, if not millions.
This was extremely well-written and well-drawn, if you've enjoyed the graphic novel Maus you would like this. If you haven't read Maus, you should!
