Emily is the queen of list-making and her lists are always 13 numbers long.Įmily tries uncovering clues about her past and present in the town of Blackrock, a small town currently visited by a mysterious medicine show. She only knows a few things, like that she's human, a girl, she speaks English, and likes the number 13.
Lost Days begins with Emily waking up on a park bench not knowing where or who she is. I just finished Emily the Strange: The Lost Days and I can easily say that I love the cheeky, intelligent, social outcast Emily. Is that wrong of me when it comes to graphic novels? I should probably rethink my approach.īecause I wasn't the biggest fan of the graphic novels, I also stayed away from the Emily the Strange novels by Rob Reger and Jessica Gruner. I didn't hate the smartass, gothy, science geek, but the novels are full of great artwork and not much text. I tried reading a couple of the Emily the Strange graphic novels, but I was never hooked. I know I shouldn't group all graphic novels together, but when I read a bad one I tend to avoid them all for months. I'm on a high after Craig Thompson's Blankets, a low with The Library Wars series, back on top with Vera Brosgol's Anya's Ghost, and in the gutter with The Walking Dead series. I have a roller coaster relationship with graphic novels.
