YAGraphic Universe: My Boyfriend Is a Monster series.
Illustrated by
Alitha E. Martinez.
In Bites, Vanessa learns from sharp-toothed boyfriend Jean-Paul that she's a foreordained monster hunter; the story has some depth and a few surprising twists. The human-faerie romance in Spell raises less excitement, but a visual shift into full color makes scenes in the fae realm seem more magical. Both graphic novels are one-time reads that series fans will enjoy. Review covers these Graphic Universe: My Boyfriend Is a Monster titles: Under His Spell and My Boyfriend Bites.
