" It's actually its very effect I -- I read this. Almost always look ridiculous that this is where everybody all right I remember eager to serve well arousal so we're going. Yet -- it's it's such -- trying not to openly weeping on the -- which has a lot to do with a winning its ability to. To depict something they don't very touching and very honest you know what's on every single page of -- is that he'd love to this. Yet that's like it seeps through to every single page that he was he just loved his best friend."

" And what was presented it turns on the is back that is the real world into something that is culturally significant improvement you know that I drew criticism if -- my sister -- of -- fact that -- going to. -- this I don't. That it isn't fantastic yet."

" The fifth yeah. Great benefit it's fantastic and it's so I have not at any given little sister. I didn't exist. And comics are typically for boys parade in like superheroes and something that. I'll accept that -- function yeah exactly but. DC DC loss of -- Thomas told me that makes one books which are which are. Purposely pointed that the kind of team preteen kind of girl I think and ironically. We love them too. -- Readers are there any kind of thing that had it for Larry I don't know that comic stories but there telling they're they're not heroes not -- have stuff they're kind of you know almost like young adult fiction. You know that that is very popular library my -- is electable why books about that. And the first woman images I think every the first woman came out that was actually my favorite line is five or six some of the come -- Was the plane gains but she's the best solution to -- And similar to ghost world -- bit -- you know not -- are about guard. It's -- said so disillusioned girls and in high school don't really fit in with each other but they're all named gene and so they they can come together as a group. And one girl lacking inspirational like decides to take her report -- and start doing -- account with art. And so -- spontaneously putting art installations around the town. Pissing off the authorities and and nobody knows who they aren't they kind of mystery and ultimately has to do with the main characters come to grips with her life she's moved away from the city to the suburbs and kind of let that that helplessness and apparel powerlessness that you feel --"

" that's there and lose issues. -- there's a bomb cafes rise that facility -- ideally that is Slobodan Padilla. Yeah exactly so but it's really really good and it's just like -- I wish I knew. Some teenage girls. But to give -- the book."

" I didn't but I like to give -- that's because space is almost. But he notices that the business it. There's also going to be a sequel yes this is obviously any of the main slide it that there -- all male of female main characters are about girls yeah this is the author of this season cast which is -- Successful wire and a long time so submit an integrated -- it really government's books would work. -- I've got this guy yet. -- about both politically and look at. He loved Lord of the Rings really did happen then I books written I do. Now scarred. Scarred by David --"

It's very much in the vein of the fantasy kind of Lord of the Rings -- what you got as he got living under foot under beneath us is a whole society of mice.

Nice cat wouldn't how sort of attractive people exactly and now -- now started telling the -- of these kind of intense thing in and you see -- possibly amounts guards folks think I'm an older one. And it's just that mandates and and art is beautiful. It's very -- and whimsical and -- and then that's not it is another. He had no exodus of the art arises like zaireans. They artist this classical yet classic the last war and yeah it's very it's actually very fantasy illustration and I and yet but but I don't think it's an update a little bit. You know like it doesn't feel modern color in the 'cause the right. -- easy -- well yeah it beta it's funny because you take these mice and you ground them in reality a little bit with the artist yeah yeah."
