Gr 7 Up—Frankenstein's Monster, aka Franklin Stone runs a funeral home where he harvests organs from bodies to create kinder, more humane versions of himself. Maria is thrilled with her new boyfriend, Tom B. Stone, who is Franklin's heartthrob "son." But can Tom explain the recent series of fatal accidents that have been giving the funeral home so much business? Written with humor and a fast pace, this book should have wide appeal, especially among fans of "Twilight" and other supernatural romances. The bold, black-and-white illustrations resemble classic comics such as "Archie" and reflect the story's romantic but irreverent tone.—Lisa Goldstein, Brooklyn Public Library, NY
In Love, high school jock Dicey can see past science-loving classmate Jack's nerd status, but will a zombie bite destroy their relationship? In Made, Maria dates Frankenstein's monster's monster. Though these graphic novels don't stand up to multiple readings, their occasional tongue-in-cheek-horror humor and kick-butt female characters have some appeal. Black-and-white panel illustrations create an atmosphere of dark adventure. Review covers these Graphic Universe: My Boyfriend Is a Monster titles: Made for Each Other and I Love Him to Pieces.
