YA New Title Alert

Check out the new graphic novel version of Twilight with artwork buy Young Kim. Stephenie Meyer’s story translates well to the illustrated page. Bella and Edward both really come to life in these drawings. Kim’s graphics are compelling and capture the atmosphere of the story. Even if you have aleady read the book or seen the movie, take an hour to read the graphic novel, it’s well worth it, and it might give you a little different perspective on this part of the tale.
