Okay, this was cuter than expected. Also, no quote this time because this book is 98% no text.
STORY:
In The Saga of Rex by Michel Gagné (200 pages)
I hadn't expected there to be such a violent part in the book (a creature was about to be sacrificed, a creature was pierced through the stomach with a bloody knife, and a creature died), but it was okay because nothing stayed too sad for long.
ART:
The art was very beautiful! There's a climatic part when Rex loses a unicorn horn that is just mesmerizing to see. When Rex and his mate become one (nothing vulgar or sexual; kids won't even pick up on the symbolism) was another beautiful part. I loved the color direction in this book as well.
CHARACTERS:
Rex was an absolute cutie and Aven seemed to be a lot of fun.
OVERALL:
To sum this book up, it's message was "travel all you can with the one you love." Or maybe it was really "this book was kind of weird and I didn't understand most of it, but I loved the pictures." Either way, it's worth picking up! I found the ending so sweet.

Yeah, I wasn't charmed by this and even had ninjas. I like ninjas! I hope the sequel's better.
Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Vol. 2: Cosmic Cooties

Whoa. I thought this was brilliant. A real thriller with some gut punches.
I disliked Fabiola's cousins except for Chantal. I just...Even though they were joking, they just came off as awful a lot of the time.
I loved Kasim, as much as Fabiola.
It had a bit too much cursing, but I enjoyed the storyline immensely. And Fabiola was such an adorable, sweet girl.
This book definitely has to be added to your tbr (to-be-read).
