In this final book of the Sheets trilogy we see who Wendell was before he became a ghost. This book series was fantastic and I am sad it is over, but I will constantly recommend this series to anyone of any age!

I really liked the storyline of uncovering what happened to Wendell. The friendship storyline between Marjorie and Eliza felt a little repetitive from the first volume.
I liked the art style a lot and that the color schemes changed between the past and present scenes. This was a sweet and heartwarming story.

I AM A WRECK!!!

This was such a perfect end to a wonderful series. Wendell found out what happened to him, Marjorie and Eliza grew up so much and it was just so heartwarming. I may have shed a tear at the end of this.

Absolutely devoured these books, they're great for all ages but especially for middle grade. The artwork is beautiful, and I really hope that Brenna Thummler makes more graphic novels for young people. I'll definitely be reading them!

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

This was a great finale to the series.
All main characters again showed some character growth, and I loved getting to know something about Wendell’s backstory.
The issues shown in this book regarding friendship and jealousy are deeply relatable from a teen perspective, especially if you have always been the outsider, been bullied or struggled to make friends.
I did want a bit more from the ending though, like a look into the future of when all of the characters meet again, though I do think the ending and moving on is fitting.
All in all a great read, I loved the whole trilogy.

Thank you to NetGalley and Oni Press for the Arc in exchange for an honest review.

Lights by Brenna Thummler was not a perfect story, but it was a great end to a series that I really grew to enjoy. My biggest complaint was that I wish the series was a bit longer, so certain storylines could feel paced out better than they were. However, I did really love how everything ended. The wrap up to all the story beats in the series made me emotional and I love how hard they hit. The art I was great and I liked it just as well as I did in the previous installments. The paneling was good as well. It left a very good flow and clarity to the story the art was telling. I am extremely happy that despite some off pacing I am overall thrilled with Lights and how the series ended.

We are once again hunting for ghosts with Marjorie, Eliza, and Wendall! This story we actually got to see a lot more of Wendall's life and how he died, including those people close to him before his death. In the first book of our trilogy, Wendall introduces the idea that ghosts begin to forget their past lives when the people on earth begin to forget about them. I've been wondering for a while if this theme would ever pop up as Wendall doesn't seem to remember a lot about his life, and it seems we finally got that with this book. I appreciate that this story was different than the other two where it sort of introduced a mystery aspect that we don't see/ get a lot, and I loved how it was executed.

I also really loved that the story opened with Marj no longer being friends with Tessi and her group. Tessi was so awful to Eliza (and Marj, let's be honest) in the last book and it always made me so angry that she just stood by and let it happen so much instead of sticking up for her. Though I do remember being in 8th grade and what it felt like to finally be friends with the "right" group. I also loved that some of her old friend group, Sid and Sasha, got a little redemption arc as well and they ended up also making amends with Marj (and eventually Eliza too).

I'm not gonna lie, the ending made me a little teary as I knew that this was the end of this series and adventures with Wendall. These books have been such a delight to read and they touch on so many tough topics, like depression, loss, suicide, friends, crushes, parent loss, and so much more. I think these are so important for youth to be reading, even just to give them a healthy and realistic idea of how these topics can be handled. The stories themselves are so cute and fun, but the messages they interweave underneath the main stories are so good and important. I will forever tell all youth to read this series. It's wonderful.

I loved this enormously sweet story of a family affected by grief and a ghost for whom no one has grieved. I want to give the entire trilogy--Sheets, Delicates, and Lights--to every elementary or middle-school kid I know who's every had a hard time. The characters are real and affecting, and the overarching messages about needing friends and being tolerant and realizing that life is hard and so you have to try hard, sometimes, to get though it, is told in a sympathetic way.

I absolutely adored this book! A charming third book in a trilogy that I did not realize was a trilogy. So I will pick up the first two books as soon as possible. Regardless of my familiarity with these characters, I thought this book did a great job of bringing the audience up to speed and into the story. I thought that art was wonderfully charming and I loved the way the flashbacks and present timeline story were composed.

This whole set was just so good! Anyone looking into this needs to get them all at the same time. I am so honoured I had the privilege to read these. I could not put this one down. I loved everything from the illustration, the colors, the contrasts, the conflicts, the resolutions, literally everything. This one in particular got really deep and really makes you think about some things going on in your own life and mind. I love this one so much I cant really say more than how much I loved it lol. It made me laugh and made me cry! So good.

FInal book in the Sheets trilogy. I really enjoyed the first one the most, once Eliza came to the picture I was so over it. I found her to be annoying, whiny, and dismissive. Glad this book focused on Wendell and how he died. Again, great series, I just didn't like Eliza.

What a great follow up to Brianna Thummler's first two graphic novels in the series. My 10 year old daughter, who read the previous two - loved this one and flew through it in a couple hours!

This book was a wonderful end to the trilogy! I was happy to find out more about Wendell and his past. I am looking forward to handing this to patrons who enjoyed the previous two books.

4.5 stars

Oh man, I really did not want this series to come to an end! The main theme of this book was friendship and healing, and just as with the themes the first two books embodied, it was handled beautifully. Wendell was a much more central character to this book compared to his more subdued role in the second installment, and I loved to see that because he is definitely my favourite character in this series. We find out why Wendell died in this installment and it was really beautiful to see him understand what happened to him and come to terms with his death. The artwork was of course gorgeous, with a really lovely colour palette, and I loved how the colour palette switched from cold colours in present day, to warm colours when we were seeing flashbacks to Wendell's life. This graphic novel series is really fantastic, and I hope to see much more from Brenna Thummler in the future!

This book is an amazing ending to the heartfelt stories of Marjorie, Eliza, and Wendell. The character growth for each of these characters is both self contained in this specific book and spans across all the books in the trilogy. The use of color palette to delineate timeline is both beautiful and necessary, but is never distracting. The ending felt rushed after we learn the ending of Wendell’s story as a human. I wish we had more time to revel in the peace of knowing they were able to overcome different challenges with the power of friendship. Overall a beautiful and touching story.

Before anything, I would like to thank you for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The Sheets trilogy was exactly what I needed to lift my heart a little after so many bad romances with horrible messages. This is a beautiful ending to it.

While I did not like Eliza on this book and couldn't stand her, which made me bored at a few pages, I liked the message behind having multiple friends and dealing with different interests in a friendship.

I loved getting to know Wendell's story a little more and was touched by Tierney. She was a great character and I wish I could've read even more about Wendell and her.

The ending felt a little pointless, I couldn't understand the purpose of that happening besides causing an emotional reaction. I also didn't like the illustrations as much as I did on the previous books.

Overall, it was a cute light-hearted story with beautiful drawings that, even though had its flaws, was fun to get through.

Lights was a great ending to this graphic novel series. In order to truly understand the story and appreciate the characters, you should really read this series in order.

I absolutely love this series and this installment did not disappoint! Thank you for another beautiful snippet of life through incredible illustrations and relatable dialogue.

A tearjerker! Wendell is one of my favorite characters of all time at this point. These characters are so so special to me and while I'm sad their story is over, this was a wonderful end to the trilogy.

A beautiful way to end this beautiful trilogy of graphic novels, Lights focuses more on Wendell's story and it was very interesting to find out more about his background. A very dignified ending, continuing the sensibility of the previous books, I ended up crying at the end. Great experience to follow these characters and a comic that is visually beautiful too. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an arc in exchange for an honest review!

I have really enjoyed this graphic novel series and was excited to see how everything wrapped up and this did it so well, I loved all of the characters and the themes of friendship were really strong. I loved how we got to see more of Wendell's back story which was actually really sad and didn't expect what happened to him but it was very well done. I still love the art style and would love to pick up more graphic novels from Brenna Thummler in the future. A 5 star graphic novel series for me with important messages.
