Dead Dead Damon has a interesting enough setting with Aliens coming to earth but kind of just not doing anything right away. Kind of like Trees. However, the main story is about Kadode and her life as a teenager.

Inio at this point is one of my favorite slice of life writers. He puts really interesting situations with just normal everyday things. While the aliens being on earth is a great background setting it's really Kadode and her best friends story that's interesting. Life goes on even with a major event like Aliens coming down and while they might effect certain plot points its watching the characters grow that is the best part.

I really enjoyed this book. Kadode is a interesting character with a lot of charm but also going through so much. On top of that her best friend is too funny but also a great secondary focus in this story. The storylines themselves are interesting from loss of a family, to love, to taboo love even. It's all here, and it's presented really well. It also helps the art is great.

I can't wait to read more. This is my favorite work behind "The Girl by the shore" and well worth reading. A 5 out of 5.
