See what they deal with everyday in ‘Amy’s Diary’
I have been able to read some good graphic novels lately. Each one has taken me on a different adventure. I am never sure where they will take me, but that only makes them more exciting to read. When I heard about Amy’s Diary I hoped I would get to read it. I was able to get a digital copy of this graphic novel and here is what I thought of it.
You can read the plot for Amy’s Diary #1 here:
At fourteen, Amy Von Brandt doesn’t feel particularly close to anyone. Since her father died, her mother has become some sort of a zombie, except all of a sudden, she’s back to life (and even wearing edgy underwear!). Could there be a connection with Dennis Belcher, the school principal? (OMG!) As for her best friend, Kat, love has rendered her brain uncharacteristically mushy. No way that’s happening to her, either! But it seems no one is truly safe from love at first sight… And in the middle of all this chaos, there’s only one thing Emily really wants: to find her place in the universe.
Amy’s Diary told a pretty good story. Readers get to hear the things she is going through, the good and the bad. There is a lot going on in her life, and it isn’t always clear where life will take her next. Things are changing in her life, and she doesn’t sound particularly happy about it. Yet when some good things happen in her own life, she begins to accept it. As this tale comes to a close, she is trying to tell her best friend something very important.
Amy’s Diary comes out March 12th. You can pre-order this graphic novel on Amazon, at Barnes and Noble and Indiebound.
