Grand Slam Romance

By Ollie Hicks, Emma Oosterhous

  • Status: Completed on 15/01/2025
  • Loaned from local library, reservation
  • I wish I liked this, but I just couldn't get into it! I wanted to DNF at the first page but since it was a 200 page graphic novel I decided to go through with it, but in the end--no, it's just not for me; not the art style nor humor.

    That being said it's an unabashedly queer graphic novel and if you want an easy read, I'd say go for it!

The Cabinet

I enjoyed the writing style of this book. Mr. Kong was delightfully strange and a freak of a office worker and the stories of the symptomers were nothing short of amazing! My favourite short story has to be the one where a man is dealing with a doppelganger, and how they interacted with one another. I only wish that it didn't feel like the story had a switch up on it's short stories though.
