Nimona by ND Stevenson
5.0

I was looking for something with a more light hearted tone after reading so many noir stories in a row and MAN was this book a breath of fresh air. The banter between characters is snappy and the jokes are hilarious. The drama was surprisingly good too. I didn't expect that since a lot of character backstory is framed in a comedic light, but, without going into spoilers, later on in the book the characters take those moments seriously, and it makes for some great drama. I wasn't sure how I felt about the art at first with all the thin line-work, but it grew on me over time. One of my favorite books I've read this year. Pick it up when you get the chance!
