Posted on: October 22, 2020
Ep. #490- Contrary to the recent opinion of S.E. Hinton, graphic novels rule and they are an incredible way to enjoy a story. Whether it’s a re-imagining of an existing book or something created entirely out of the artwork, all graphic novels and comics offer something unique and stunning.
In this chat, Adam is joined by Kristin and Marie from the OverDrive Team of Librarians. They get into a bunch of nonfiction comics and graphic novels, touch on webcomics they love and get on a soapbox about how all reading formats are equally awesome.
