Chapter by Chapter features me reading one chapter of the selected book at the time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as read-along book club.
We start this chapter on the last third of the lower 48 states. I’m assuming they didn’t take the car to Hawaii or Alaska. Last time even Eric was starting to feel the stress of the tour, but not as bad as Elizabeth has. She’s still having sleeping issues, which isn’t good when you need to paint for an audience.
This is going to be the longest chapter so far in this graphic novel, 42 pages. I’ve been starting to question how chapter breaks are chosen in some of the prose novels I’ve read for this series recently, especially the Op-Center novels, and this is no different. How does someone choose when to break the story and give the reader a break to sleep or go back to work or try to find out why the baby’s been crying nonstop for the last half hour or whatever reason people have. It’s not as bad in this graphic novel because of the panel size and a comic is quicker to get through than prose. You don’t have to describe the scene as much because it’s right there, but it does set your world in a fixed look. There are tradeoffs, as I’ve discussed before between prose and comic novels. Still, this will take longer to go through than the other chapters. Good thing the story’s been interesting thus far.
We’ll see if that continues and how much worse the stress of this unofficial worldbreaking quest is as we dive into chapter 8 of 11.
