BOOKLIST -- Roommates Eveand Hanna have finally come to somewhat understand each other, but their livesare still chaotic. Eve and her boyfriend, Park, are navigating trickyrelationship waters as he thinks about moving to Chicago for a job. Meanwhile,Eve still has feelings for Hanna's drug-dealer friend, Will, who is datingMarigold, and Hanna is caught up in the drama. Gran's second volume of herwebcomic about slacker, stoner, and hipster twenty-somethings in NYC is slightlyless random than volume one, as the stories deal more with the growing pains ofyoung adulthood and focus less on odd-ball occurrences. Because of this, thecharacters' struggles are more relatable than earlier in the narrative, andreaders familiar with the characters will find themselves a bit melancholy bythe end, though new readers may be lost. Gran's figures-all big heads and wideeyes-are satisfyingly cartoonish, which in a strange way makes their antics ringmore true. A nice addition to graphic novel collections needing realistic comicsthat aren't nonfiction or memoirs.
