My Bookshelf is a feature in which I showcase items I personally feel are special on my bookshelf. Whether it be book related, a signed copy, special edition, or other such things, they are items I want to specifically showcase.
There are 2 things about me I am not sure I have ever properly conveyed. 1)I am obsessed with artbooks. 2) I adore online/original/indie comics.
One such comic that I adore is [un]Divine by Ayme Sotuyo. I actually found it through Kickstarter when I stumbled across her side comic, Hot Day. After reading through the description, I backed it before going to the original comic and bringing the whole thing in one day (it had all over 300 pages at the time.)
This came in the mail today. The book alone was $65 which I normally would feel is pretty steep for a book. But honestly, I didn’t hesitate. Not only was I thrilled about having the potential own a physical copy of a comic I was greatly in love with, but I am more willing to accept such a price from an indie author.
10 out of 10 would buy again. The comic is top notch in terms of art and plot. And I am pretty sure I died a bit when I saw it was signed.
Signed books are so fun!
Not going to lie, they’re among my favorite. Won’t pretend I won’t spend a bit extra for it either.
