Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life by Bryan Lee O'Malley

4.0

This book is quite funny and full of dry humour, which I love. I'm shocked at how faithful the film is to this first installment, everything is almost exactly the same.
This story is bizarre and shifts its tone without warning. Theres teen drama, young adult drama and then there is a fight scene.
The drawings are simplistic and very charming and the dialogue is excellent. Everyone in the story is delightfully dry, except for Knives Chau, and I feel like Scott is a very well developed character. Everything about him and even the frames of the book are very indicative of the way life whizzes by without consideration for your own mentality once you get into your early twenties. Scott is a flawed character and it's his layers that make him a good and relatable character.
Can't wait to read the rest of the series and see how similar the film is to the rest of the series.
