Between burnout, attempting a vacation, and getting the worst case of the flu, I've been on a book-reading hiatus. I jumped back into it with "Blackwater" by Jeannette Arroyo and Ren Graham. This graphic novel was illustrated by both Jeannette and Ren. They alternated chapters in their own styles, "which makes for a unique and dynamic illustration package."
["Tony Price is a popular high school track star and occasional delinquent aching for his dad’s attention and approval. Eli Hirsch is a quiet boy with a chronic autoimmune disorder that has ravaged his health and social life. What happens when these two become unlikely friends (and a whole lot more . . .) in the spooky town of Blackwater, Maine? Werewolf curses, unsavory interactions with the quarterback of the football team, a ghostly fisherman haunting the harbor, and tons of high school drama."]
This book was suuuuuuper cute. It was angsty as hell and there was a ton of drama, but it was a fun and spooky read right before Halloween.
