I read this in one sitting! I'm not usually a fan of graphic novel but this was compared to Neal Shusterman and Scott Westerfeld so I knew I had to request this immediately. I really enjoyed this, it was heart warming and heart breaking at the same time. I thought the drawings were nicely done (even though it was 3 colors only) and I love the cover. I also enjoy the end of the world settings. Thank you to the publisher and to Netgalley for this advanced copy!

I love Oni Press as a publishing company as I am a big fan of Scott Pilgrim, so I was excited to read this.
Virginia has been taking care of her brothers since her mom left them 8 years ago and then receives a package on her 18th birthday from her mom. She decides to leave home and search for her mother. The book started off slow for me. I really wanted background on why the world was the way it was, but it immediately started on the main character, Virginia's, journey and that threw me off a bit. I loved the minor characters in this story such as TK and Four Dollars as they not only gave context to the background of the story, but they aided in character development for Virginia. At times I got frustrated by the decisions that Virginia makes, but I had to remind myself that she's only 18 with her mind set on finding her mother. By the end of the story, you'll be rooting for the characters on their journey!
Excited for the next one!

Odessa is an amazing Graphic novel with beautiful cartoon line. This novel is about the adventure of siblings.

Their living in California, after a big earthquake, which change the world and the people. There's a gang war on the streets, but they are still moving forward despite the many losses.
I really like this book. It was funny and amusing. I appreciate showing the characters of the main figures and their problems. Also I liked theme od end world.
I recommend it, it's worth reading.

Didn't quite like this.
Got this copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Wasn't too into this one. Thought the story was quite boring and couldn't really get into it. I had to take little breaks form this in between so I wouldn't get too bored sadly. I did like some of the characters however I thought the lack of the in depth of the story was sad. I just wished for so much more when I read the blurb.
Sorry but a 2 star from me.
