It's so much fun to read. The idea of the love between Tom and Maria is so lovely. I adore this comic series...

P.S. Do belive that love always wins...

If you follow my reviews, you might have noticed that I already reviewed (and fell in love with) the first in this series. Made for Each Other is the second book in the "My Boyfriend is a Monster" series. As a fan of graphic novels, I'm always raring to pick up a new set! So I dove into the second one with as much fervor as the first.

I think it should be mentioned that I didn't realize until after I started reading that each novel in this series has a different story line, along with different characters. This particular installment follows Maria McBride as she delves into the mysteriousness that surrounds the new boy, Tom Stone. He's unlike any other boy in her high school class. Dark, brooding, and downright handsome. Maria makes it her goal to find out why he's being so distant.

First, as always, let's talk illustrations. One of my favorite parts about these is that they are in black and white. It's not that I don't love color illustrations, I do. There's just something about the black and white that speaks volumes to me. The ability to tell such a vivid story without color is astounding. That being said, the illustrations in Made for Each Other are rather simple, but lovely. They fit the story perfectly and each panel is filled with detail. Right down to the wrinkles on Maria's mother's face, they are beautifully done.

In terms of story, that's where this one lost a star for me. Again, each graphic novel in the series has different characters, and is also (I found out) written by a different author. Although I liked Maria and Tom, I just couldn't fall in love with them as much as I would have liked to. Without spoiling anything I can definitely tell you that this is a different kind of story. What Tom is, well, it definitely adds a story element that keeps things fresh. However, as I said, I just didn't fall in love with it as much as the last installment. Maybe I'm just predisposed to love zombies. Who knows.

I'll quit rambling here. I am honestly still in love with this series, and look forward to the next installment! I can't wait to see what "My Boyfriend is a Monster" has in store for us. If you are a lover of graphic novels, give these a shot. If you haven't yet taken the big plunge into graphic novels, these are a great way to start!
