April was not a good BOOK reading month. It was more of a graphic novel month, but it counts towards my reading goal! I think Graphic Novels are a great way to get through reading slumps, how bought you guys? What gets you through a slump?

And so the adventures of Agent Tony Chu continue in this volume, which has him traveling to a remote island that grows a strange fruit that tastes exactly like illegal chicken. I enjoyed the expanding world, including a character with the special power to inject whatever he cooks with different emotions.

@TricksyTails was so generous and bought the first volume of #Chew. My boyfriend loved it and had me buy him the second volume and is diving in! Love that he is enjoying it. I hope to read it soon! Thanks again @TricksyTails ! That was so generous of you!

#ThankYou #GraphicNovel #BoyfriendIsReading

TricksyTails 👏😆 So happy he‘s enjoying the series! ♥️♥️♥️ 7y
MinDea @TricksyTails have to order the next volume. Now I know he likes it and can order more than 1 at a time! Any other recommendations for him in the graphic novel realm? He wasn't intrested in reading the other one you got me (Saga). 7y
TricksyTails 😳 Umm...while my universe recovers from being shattered by someone NOT wanting to read Saga, I‘m going to ask @GrilledCheeseSamurai to step in to offer suggestions. I‘ll be back when I‘ve pieced myself back together. 7y

GrilledCheeseSamurai Shhhh...its alright @TricksyTails...there, there, its going to be okaaaay. 🤣 Have you tried Kill or be Killed with him? There are 3 volumes out now and I find that anything Brubaker and Philips collaborate on sucks in people that don't read a lot of comics...because...you know...anything those 2 do together is friggen awesome! 👌 7y
MinDea Hahaha @TricksyTails Sorry! I will let him know how disappointing he is. 😆😆😆Thanks @GrilledCheeseSamurai ! I will check them out 7y
TricksyTails He‘s not disappointing. He just crushed my soul. That‘s all. 💔 Thanks @GrilledCheeseSamurai for helping with the rec‘s! 😊 7y
TricksyTails So what kind of stories does he like? Or what did he like about Chew? And what is it about Saga that doesn‘t appeal? That‘ll help me try to figure what else to recommend. 7y
MinDea Ok. So he likes the uniqueness of Chew. It is a "different" take on a detective story, funny, witty, well written. Saga he said he is not interested in a love story. @TricksyTails @GrilledCheeseSamurai 7y

Since poultry is now illegal in the US, anything that tastes like chicken, e.g. the frog (Which I always thought was kind of stringy when I had frog legs), to a newly discovered fruit that grows only on a small Micronesian island, Tony Chu has many adventures of the “International Flavor.” 🌟🌟🌟🌟

I think Chu has been partnered with the #sidekickfromhell

They pretty much hate each other and have now been partnered together.

I'm avoiding my sick niece (I know I'm a terrible person, I just don't have the money to be sick), so I'm curled up with a couple of graphic novels to pass the time.

TricksyTails Awesome choice! Both the graphic novel and avoiding the plague! 😏😆 I do love Chew! Makes any day better! 7y

Nothing for people with a weak stomach... good storytelling and art work. I like how the story develops and have the next volume lined up already.
