Part One (Volumes 1-5, read 4/5/2023 to 4/9/2023)

It's a raunchy take on "Friends" as a bunch of twentysomethings deal with friendships, careers, and romantic relationships in punchy little comic strips usually set in a bar, apartment, or sex shop. It's crass and trashy at times, and you have to put up with a talking cactus, but I was pretty consistently amused.

Part Two (Volumes 6-10, read 4/20/2023 to 4/23/2023)

I'm well settled in with the characters and get a kick out of watching them show more slowly mature as their relationships ebb and flow. A good enough conclusion brings the crass but amusing little soap opera to a close.

BMO thinks princesses are the BEST! Stuff happens. Good lessons in playing to your strengths and working out problems, and it was nice to get to know some of the other princesses in the kingdom. If there had been more than grayscale purple, then there might be more stars here.
When Finn Jake, and Flame Princess take a visit to the Carnival Kingdom, F.P. visits a fortune teller who steals Finn's soul, and F.P. will do anything to get the real Finn back.

This graphic novel contains all the usual Adventure Time insanity, and has many new characters and a very original story.
I love Adventure Time so much. Cute spin off series are awesome.

This one sometimes got overly girly, compared to the show and the other set of comics. You could tell it was written by a woman. It wasn't bad. You could just tell it was geared to girls.

I like Adventure Time because it's a boy story with little hints of emotion and feelings. This was the other way around, and I'm not sure if I'm okay with that.
