Looking forward to finishing out this great story.Amulet: Book Eight–Supernova by Kazu Kibuishi It's becoming one of my favorite parts of this series.

Many times I have paused to simply stare at the page's art. The artwork is gorgeous! The scenes are lush, the characters are well defined, and the fantasy elements are so inventive. (But I doubt that's something many kids would care about!) Overall, the story is compulsively readable with a cliffhanger to finish off each installment. I've had to back up a few times to make sure I didn't miss anything. Although, at times, the plot moves so quickly it doesn't provide much information in transition. I'm very interested in the stones and how their story will play out with the lead characters. Each installment pushes it forward into fresh ideas and new locations. I wanted to read more of what he likes so we can talk about it. I'm really enjoying this YA graphic novel series! I picked it up on the recommendation of my nephew.
