Overall, I thought this was a fun graphic novel. I have had little experience with Anonymous, but I will say that I have been inclined to support some of their operations in the past. I was aware of their involvement in regards to Scientology and Steubenville, but I did not know about #opFerguson. I feel like this graphic novel was biased towards Anonymous and there was not much discussion on the negative aspects of their campaigns. It also seemed a bit unfinished. It felt like I was looking for clues (like how on pages 9 and 10 the journalist threw away the contact information for Mr. X in a garbage can rather than disposing of it in a different way) that never resurfaced.
I think the teens in my library would enjoy this, so I am probably going to put in a purchase request for it in my branch.
This book was.... well, a waste of time. Not at all what I was expecting. I had to force myself to finish this.
Thank you Netgalley for my copy of this in exchange for my honest review.
"A for Anonymous" is a decent graphic novel. Nothing amazing about the sotry or the art. I'll recommend it to a few.
I received an ARC of this from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
When I requested this book I knew very little about Anonymous but I’ve definitely seen them before. I thought this was an interesting read in illustrated format about the history and purpose of the group. It discusses some of their biggest campaigns, with the church of Scientology and Sony. Not only does it chronicle some of its more notorious success stories but also some of its failures, which I think is important for some perspective.
I thought it was well done. .
I am really shocked by this. Thank you NetGalley for giving me the change to read and review this. I wish it was better. This was very disappointing and not worth the time.
