A Great Graphic Novel: Ginseng Roots

 


One of my latest habits is ordering graphic novels, I can't afford, off Interlibrary Loan instead. Ginseng Roots was one of my favorite graphic novels ever. It is by Craig Thompson. His book Blankets about an evangelical childhood was very good too. This book had memoir, history, and more. 

I'm still reading a lot of graphic novels. It's a rare hobby for a woman my age but I enjoy it and will continue. After all I've done my own graphic novel projects on here even though those were self-published. My love of comics has continued. A suburban library near my town does allow us to hold a card there, so I've checked out more graphic novels there. 

Here's some of my recent graphic novels from the library. I liked all of these except the Love and Rockets one, there was these big boobed women I keep mixing up with each other and it just seemed pointless and raunchy for shock value. 

The Blues Brother one was entertaining, interestingly enough it was a project led by one of Dan Ackroyd's kids. My love of "slice of life" anime has continued, "Home Office Romance" was a nice book. I'm read the first three books of "The Way of the House Husband" anime series this week.
