Odessa by Jonathan Hill

5.0

Odessa is a gorgeous work that follows three siblings on the search for their mother. Virginia, Harry, and Wes must face trials as their look for their lost mother, and they must learn to survive along the way. As they continue on their journey, they meet many colorful characters that will either help or hurt them. Readers will be enchanted and intrigued by the story, the twists and turns, and the beautiful world Jonathan Hill has created. The art is stunning, and the story simplistic, but grisly where it needs to be. This world is not a kind place, and Hill's art shows us that--it feels almost like the Walking Dead at times. It is a brilliant and timeless work of ingenuity and I cannot wait to put this in the hands of so many teens in my community, who I know will love it just as much as I did.
