Speak: The Graphic Novel | Laurie Halse Anderson

FINALLY! I've been begging my favorite podcast, Pop Psych 101, on all forms of social media to do an epsiode on this graphic novel and they announced today it will be their next podcast episode so I'm officially considering this my #podcastpick for #Booked2019 🙌 ❤ Excited to read this this weekend 😊 @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage

Cinfhen I used this for my #Booked2019 #GNorComic choice 🧡It was very powerful and really well done 5y

Speak: The Graphic Novel | Laurie Halse Anderson

pick

I appreciated both what the author and illustrator created. The simple sparse sentence structure framed by the black & white drawings were highly effective. There was a lot of bravery and compassion on these pages. That being said, I don‘t think I‘m a fan of this medium. While I respect & applaud the creativity , I don‘t necessarily enjoy the product. Definitely #ItsMeNotYou

TrishB Same! Hubby got To Kill A Mockingbird GN for Christmas- I think that may be my choice! Eventually! 5y

BarbaraTheBibliophage GNs are as different as other books. I‘ve loved some and thought others were truly dull. Glad you ✔️ off the prompt, though! 5y

Cinfhen I‘ve tried about a dozen now and it just doesn‘t connect with me as a reader @BarbaraTheBibliophage @TrishB but I‘m happy to pick one up every now & then! And extra props because it was from the library 💝💝💝 5y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen Ah well, then it‘s just not your thing. Thank goodness for libraries. 5y

Leftcoastzen Did you try this?

My Favorite Thing is Monsters

Cinfhen No, not yet but I am curious! @Leftcoastzen 5y

Leftcoastzen One more before you throw in the towel???😂 5y

Blaire I‘m with you - I‘ve tried quite a few graphic novels and even when I appreciate them none have ever caused me to seek them out. ive only picked them up for challenges. I don‘t think I have the eye for taking in whatever the pictures add. (edited) 5y

MandellaL I didn't know this existed! I love the novel and have a copy that it is constant use in my classroom (even though I require parental permission to borrow it). Maybe I need to look into adding this one for my graphic novel crowd. 5y

Cinfhen Yes!!! It‘ll be the straw that broke the camel‘s back @Leftcoastzen 🐫🐪🐫🐫🐪 5y

Cinfhen I think teens will find this GN very relatable @MandellaL but I think you‘re right @Blaire I probably don‘t have the eye for it either. 5y

Reviewsbylola I‘ve been meaning to read this version. 5y
