bandherbooks 's review for:

Monstress, Vol. 1: Awakening by Marjorie M. Liu
2.0

Beautifully illustrated, yet confusingly written. I had a really difficult time settling into this world, and often had to force myself to read it. I also would be completely taken out of the story by severe language that just didn't seem to fit in with the atmosphere and setting. I don't think I'll be picking up Volume 2 unless it is to look at the pictures.
