Review: FRIENDS FOREVER by Shannon Hale

 


Even though you were one of the older kids in school, eighth grade was still tough for Shannon. Beauty and popularity were two things that would be nearly impossible to get. Shannon just felt ugly and uncool. Indeed, eighth grade was tough.

 

This graphic novel cutely illustrates the trials and trauma of junior high. I enjoyed the comical scenes in it. Good illustrations!

 

Not only did Shannon want to be beautiful and popular, but she also had big dreams of being a published author. What was more confusing was the topic of boys. How can you like them when they’re such total jerks? Yep, this story was totally relatable. I especially liked the daydreaming and emotional scenes. Truly artistic!

 

In the end, we are who we are and that should be enough. A good read!

 

Rating: 4 stars
