You get 5 wishes. Anything. But it's not as easy as closing your eyes and wishing of anything. There is a dark side, an evil one. What started out as good has turned out awful, leaving Hannah sadder then ever before, with only one choice left to make.
Ah, reading random graphic novels at work. I picked this up because I was curious to see what the circ stats were on a comic made to promote a second-rate teen pop star, but the comic was actually not as bad as it could have been. This is more than a shameless advertisement for Avril Lavigne. In fact, it's barely about Lavigne at all. It's about a teenage girl who happens to love Avril Lavigne, but the plot revolves around a troublemaking demon she ordered off the internet that grants wishes. Li...
What kind of ending is that?? How is this the last volume?! What
Avril isn't even in it? Couldn't find volume 1.
It was ok.
(Will use the same review for both books)This two books follows Hana, a lonely girl, whose life at school and at home are not what she wanted them to be, so to get out of her reality, she imagines a world where her best friend is the famous single Avril Lavigne. Avril will be like a Guardian Angel for Hana throughout the story, trying to keep her from doing something bad and guiding her to practice good actions instead. But, there’s always one but, right? Hana one day finds a website that grants...
Teenage me loved this book alot more than 28 years old me does. The best thing about this book is the artwork, it's beautiful and in full colour throughout. The story is much darker than I remember. This follows right on from the last one, Hana is waiting to see how the wish about her being popular in school is going to come true. And it does come true but in a pretty horrific way. This leaves Hannah depressed and she ends up throwing herself off a bridge, just after she finally manages to talk
I’m actually so angry that I read this.The synopsis and advertising make this seem like such a fun and cute graphic novel about Avril Lavigne, but it’s not. I feel like they used her name just to drag in the fans.This is not a fun story. It’s dark and horrible and unnecessary and I’m upset that I was drawn into this because of false and misleading advertising. Trigger Warning: for pretty much everything: suicide, cyber impersonations / bullying, murder, divorce, some family abuse, depression, su...
I was actually quite surprised by good this little story was. It struck me in an enlightening manner on several occasions. I didn't quite get why Avril Lavignes was idolised so much, why there was a write about her life, or why she was named in the title. Most likely it is shameless commercialism, but the touching beauty of the tale seems unable to be driven by stark crassness.
just can't get enough of volume 1? good job there's another one, then! this book is SO GOOD; just as good as the first one! (I think it's even better!) go get reading; you won't regret it! oh, the ending! *sob!* I won't give away any spoilers about the ending but all I'm saying is GO READ IT NOW!!!!!check out Avril Lavigne's amazing music on YouTube!
YUCK!I was expecting something else from this OEL manga. I mean, because of one stupid girl there are four deaths and a man who loses his mind. I'm not sure I like the concept that other people are paying for the mistakes of one cretin girl. I disliked Hana in volume #1 as well, but here she shows her worst. I have the feeling that she wastes her wishes for unimportant things and she can't grow a spine to try and make things better. She just leaves herself falling.After the tragedies she finds a...
An interesting take on the five wishes concept.
Reviewing both volumes together as I read them one after the other.I've been an Avril Lavigne fan since her first album and I feel like I definitely read these graphic novels online forever ago, but I didn't remember anything about them. They were actually so surprisingly dark, which I was not expecting at all and I actually respect the decision to write them this way because it could have been such an easy and probably more profitable choice to make a basic, happy story. I liked the artwork mos...
I liked this, but it's more shaky than the first volume, and the annoying Avril factor gets much more irritating. Also, there's the fact that I found out the artist was not invited back to do the second volume and so they had other folks approximate her work, which is just kind of nasty. I need to look at them again to see the different, but...not a good thing for the series. It also gets very dark in this volumes (with fires and people dying) so I was a bit taken aback, though in the end I like...
The true nature of the demon becomes known when it reveals who it's granted wishes for in the past, like Marie Antoinette and Faust. Hana wanted her parents marriage to get better, but he grants it by having them split up totally and each one finding happiness separately, later. The demon causes an explosion that kills two students and a teacher. Hana is the only one in the room to survive it. Other things happen that are bad, including the slightly inconclusive ending of the book which really,
One star lost for the ambiguous ending. I'm not sure if they had planned a third book (I suspect not), but I felt it robbed the book of meaning in exchange for a pretentious "you decide for yourself what happens".Well, then, in my ending, Hana finds out she's half kraken, and rises to devour the world.Anyway, the ending was definitely weak, as was the motivation for her to do what she did ("He tricked me! I was the Avril Lavigne".) Girl, you specifically SAID the real one. Seeing yourself cospla...
booo. be more didactic, avril.
