I enjoyed this one just as much as I enjoyed Sheets !!! Absolutely stunning and the story, again, made me sob !!!

Ever since Majorie met Wendell, he’s been a bright light in her life. He’s been her best friend, and even became friends with her new friend from school, Eliza. The three of them have been close friends ever since, but as Majorie and Eliza get closer to entering high school, things are starting to change. Majorie and Eliza’s friendship is put to the test when Eliza rekindles old friendships, and Wendell is determined to find out who he was and why he died. The three of them now face being torn apart or becoming closer than ever.

In what seems like the final book in the series, we focus primarily on friendships as the human and ghostly trio search for who Wendall was when he was alive. This time around, we get to see what friendships Wendall has as he slowly remembers things from his past. They come back to him in bits and pieces, and aren’t always what they appear to be, but it helps Majorie and Eliza figure out where to look.

I really liked getting to learn about Wendall’s past as he slowly remembers things and tries to figure out who he remembers from his life. It was so interesting to see where his memories took us and figuring out how the living characters we meet along the way fits into that. It was exciting to see that Majorie, Eliza, and Wendell each got a book that focuses on them and their healing. Wendall has been one of the more interesting characters due to the fact that he’s a ghost and doesn’t remember who he was and where his family is, so it was really nice to see him finally get answers and have that mystery completed.

I loved seeing Majorie and Eliza again, and it was great to see how their friendship continued to grow after the previous book. Eliza accidentally ends up with two ex-friends thrown back in her life, and it was nice to see how some supporting characters experienced character growth off the pages. Unfortunately, it does shake things up between Majorie and Eliza, but I loved seeing how they both figure out how to work through things because even friends can experience problems with their relationship.

All in all, this was a sad but wonderful read. The artwork was beautiful as always and really aided in telling the story through color palette alone. The way the book ended, I really think this is the final book in the series, and I can’t picture how the story would continue after this anyway. I think these characters are continuing to heal and find new ways to enjoy life again off the pages and can picture them going on to lead happy lives (or afterlives).

Oh wow. This graphic novel series did something to me. I started book 1 (Sheets) after dinner yesterday, and I finished book 2 (Delicates) and book 3 (Lights) before midnight. First of all, the art style was fantastic, and Wendell as a ghost made me actually giggle with joy.

When I tell you this book made me cry, I SOBBED. This is a Middle-Grade/YA Graphic Novel that covers some hard topics, such as coping with death and depression. While Lights was my least favorite out of the series, it still was a solid finale. I really enjoyed the flashbacks to Wendell's life, and by the end, I thought the message of acceptance was shown perfectly. I will be buying this series for my classroom IMMEDIATELY.

Wow, I just loved this series so much! ‘m not a huge graphic novel reader, and this was one of the few ones that really captured my heart.

And the moment I read what this third installment is all about, I knew I was going to love it even more than the first two. Because I love digging into the past of the characters I already know and love, seeing them in a different light and understanding them better.

Lights had so much to offer - such a perfect blend of the most cozy vibes, growing up, friendships and mystery.

And a lot of snow! Reading this graphic novel felt like being a child and spending a perfect cozy winter day wandering around your small town through snow-covered streets with your best friends, on a mission to solve a mystery. And make it a ghost mystery!

A huge thank you to Oni Press and NetGalley for providing me with an arc of Lights by Brenna Thummler in exchange for an honest review!

I didn't like this book as much as I hoped. 😐 Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed it for the most part but it didn't quite live up to the success of the first two books. 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 is the third and final installation to the Sheets series. In this book, Marjorie and Eliza embarks on a mission to help Wendell remember his past life.

I've been really anticipating this book because we'll finally get Wendell's backstory. It's unfortunate that I felt so underwhelmed when I read it. I feel like the story dragged on for the first half. The setup felt flat so it took me quite a while to get invested in the story. I almost DNF this book, but I'm still glad that I sticked to it because the ending was worth it. It was nice to see Wendell finally make peace with his death and accept afterlife. Thank you so much NetGalley and Oni Press for this copy!! 👻

A beautiful ending to this series. We learn more about everyone and clear up everything that needed cleaning up. Emotional and gorgeous.

The Sheets trilogy has been a beautiful and moving journey about friendship, loss, growing pains, and more. Lights is the perfect conclusion to this trilogy. It really provides a lot of closure on the lives of the characters, the friendships, and Wendell's story. I honestly teared up reading this one. I definitely recommend this trilogy.

Great books! i love how heartwarming it is. the color of the illustration is so vibrant. i did enjoy the whole series and this third book is such a perfect add up into it. open up more chemistry between the two main characters and their own uniqueness compliment each other.

Lights is the third and final graphic novel in the Sheets series, during which we focus on Eliza, and the mystery of Wendell's death. If theres something Brenna Thummler does well, its capturing the emotions of teenagers - the lonliness, grief, and insecurity are so well written throughout this series, beautifully complimented by Thummlers stunning artwork. The colour palette is well thought out, indicating flashbacks with ease. I cannot wait to see what more Brenna comes out with in the future.

How happy, yet sad I was to finally be able to read this final installment of one of my favorite graphic novel series!

I read this during the perfect time of year which just enhanced all the winter and nostalgic vibes in this book. I found the friendship dynamic and issues so relatable even as an adult! Brenna always does a wonderful job of exploring difficult topics, yet balances the story with humor and wit.

I will never get over the amount of detail Brenna puts in her illustrations and will read anything she writes!

Lights is the final instalment in the trilogy of graphic novels by Brenna Thummler about Marjorie, Eliza and their ghost friend Wendell. I absolutely loved Sheets and Delicates so was eager to see how Brenna would wrap up their stories.

Sheets concentrates more on Wendell and his background compared to the previous two graphic novels and it was really heartwarming to see him discover his own story. Thummler also dives deeper into Marjorie and Eliza’s friendship and examines some tender subjects such as changing friendships, forgiveness and grief in her usual beautiful intuitive style.

Just like Sheets and Delicates, the artwork in Lights is simply gorgeous. The delicate pastel palette and simple yet emotive illustrations perfectly compliment some possible tear jerker moments.

If you enjoyed Sheets and Delicates you will absolutely adore Lights. I’d also really recommend the series for anyone considering trying graphic novels for the first time.

Thanks to Oni Press for giving me a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

I absolutely love the art of this series - I love the colors and the characters. This third (and I think final?) installment of the story is maybe the weakest in my opinion - but still worth a read if you enjoyed the previous volumes. This volume felt a bit rushed and a bit confusing to me - but overall it was sweet and fun, and I enjoy this series overall.

3.5 Stars

I read this in 2023 and enjoyed it.

Congratulations to the author and thanks to the publisher for the copy!

This is a fun addition to the series, but in order to fully enjoy it readers need to have read the previous book.

This is a Paranormal Graphic Novel, and this is the third book in the Sheets series. I have read the first two books in this series. I really enjoyed the first two books in this series, but this one was just ok for me. I had a very hard time getting into this book. I am not sure why I did not connect to this book. I got an e-book arc of this book, but I did buy a copy of this book as well.

This was a perfect ending to this trilogy and it was VERY bittersweet! Loved hearing more about Wendell and his backstory, and also exploring Marjorie and what she wants to do! A lot of parallelles in this one and a lot of it deeper than we realized!

Also glad to see the dad trying even more to be an active parent here!

A beautiful ending to a beautiful series. I'm sad it's over but this satisfyingly tied up so many parts of the story.

I love this series! This installment in the series was engaging and hard to put down. I enjoyed the character growth Marjorie has had throughout, and Eliza as well.

I will read anything Brenna Thummler puts out into the world. I have loved the Sheets series so much because of the way it makes me feel while reading. The colors and the characters are warm and lovable. Although I read these digitally, I would like to have these sitting on my shelf to revisit whenever I felt the pull.

Thummler owes me restitution for this book, because it felt like a personal attack on me. I found myself relating to Marjorie so much in this book, but the end of this book had me literally in tears right before I needed to leave for an appointment. Because I felt like the words being spoken were what I needed to hear at so many different points in my life. But especially when my brain ruminates on friends that have come and gone.

The Sheets Series is fantastic, I would definitely recommend it for a lot of people. While it covers a lot of heavy topics it does it in a really good way.

"Some lights shine brighter than others- They light up different parts of your life. But see they all cast shadows, too. There's good and bad in everyone, you know? But the more friends you have in your life... well... the more, brightness you'll have overall... You can't seek the friends "you always thought you'd have." Friendship happens naturally and... Unexpectedly with people you don't have to think twice about."

"I know almost nothing about being onstage. and a tutu is probably the least likely garment I would wear. even after one of those insane neon tracksuits. But Life is sort of a stage, right? Didn't Shakespeare say something life that? The characters, the lights- some do shine brighter than others. Like some literally sparkle, almost to a fault. Some light up the spaces on stage you never knew were important, challenging you to see new perspectives. Some are duller, some may flicker, and they all can at some point, cast creepy shadows. And some like a flame, won't last forever. But they're all there, ideally to play their part- however big or small- at eliminating the darkness."
