It gets stars for being well drawn and technically a well written story, but the characters are awful, hateful, pointless people. I feel like I've just lost a few hours of my life I can never get back. I can't believe I finished it.

I really wanted to like this because of good reviews, but I mostly found the characters annoying and rude. However, the artwork is good.

I love the entire premise of Ghost World, the two main characters, their fed-up anti-attitudes and their questionable friendship. However, I've only ever seen the movie up until now.
I did like this original graphic novel, however; perhaps because of the rich world the movie and its soundtrack built up in my head, I couldn't enjoy this quite as much.
Sometimes the language and themes in general were too harsh for me, not in a quirky, but in a deregatory or "too-serious" way. I didn't appreciate the way gay people were used as a joke.
The drawings were great! I love the way Clowes uses green to accentuate.

I’m not sure I get this book. Two friends who are kind of jerks to everyone around them suddenly become jerks to each other and then aren’t friends anymore? I don’t know. I do know that it was not really my jam.

Not my cup of tea, but definitely see it as a jumping off point for the movie.

Do NOT talk to me about this book I want to forget it exists.

Underwhelming, to say the least. I laughed (or made laughing sounds? Or had some air come out of my nose?) around 3 times. The art is great, the dialogue irreverent, but I really don't get the hype. Plotless, slow-paced (with dialogue that seems a bit frantic? I don't know how the hell that is possible). I am detached from the characters and will probably forget about them by tomorrow.

Question: Why does this have a movie?? God forbid I be tricked into watching that.
Question 2: Why are there so many 5-star reviews?? Did I miss out on anything???

I'm sure there is a point to this — maybe this is an accurate portrayal of someone's adolescence? Who knows? I'll never know.

Not sure I "get" this one. Teenage angst, finding yourself, coming to understand the world...yeah. Great artwork and some interesting characters though.

nada rescatable chavales

Ok not sure what I saw in this graphic novel to like it so much the first time, but I was a high schooler back then soOoOoo…
