...First of all, congrats on those amazing 10 years!<br /><br />Secondly, I had never heard of this graphic novel, but sounds great. I can't recommend you enough my favourite one: Tamara Drewe. A re-telling of Far From the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy. There is also a movie directed by Stephen Frears and it's really good too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637440206562155541.post-84154464023857736102013-09-30T02:43:50.310+01:002013-09-30T02:43:50.310+01:00Oh I loved this one.

I should warn you, Habibi is one of those books that piles on A LOT of misery, and I eventually couldn't keep reading it. A bunch of people loved it, and the art is just stunning, but definitely don't go into it (as I did) expecting it to be like Blankets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637440206562155541.post-10120178200115341712013-09-27T00:01:25.774+01:002013-09-27T00:01:25.774+01:00I'm so glad to see so many people reading and ...I'm so glad to see so many people reading and reviewing this lately!
