This is adorable, and I love both Nimona and Ballister Blackheart. I'm only saddened that this is over: I would read the further adventures of either one of these characters, or even better, both together. Or prequels. Anything with them, to be honest. But this, like vision, is a complete s...
Around the Year Reading Challenge Item #38: A book about an anti-heroThis was a light read, but not shallow.

A funny tale!I love this graphic novel about Nimona. She's mischievous that's for certain, but bad? I doubt it. Crazy thing is the villain, Ballister Blackheart, isn't all that bad either. Oh, he does try though.I love the wit in this story. I laughed out loud a couple of times. The tale flowed pret...
