Okay, I love a grump and Kody is about as grumpy as they come. He is giving black cat vibes and our poor baby Lumine is just trying to be his friend. Obviously being his body guard as well is tricky but he is trying so hard.

The art is phenomenal and I cannot wait to continue the series.

This series is absolutely precious and the relationship between Kody and Lumine is a joy to follow. I love reading about supernatural odd ball pairings.

Ich habe das Buch nicht vollständig gelesen, da es erhebliche Layoutprobleme hat und darunter leidet das Verstehen des Textes und die Motivation. Die Bilder sind alle allerdings sehr schön. Leider nicht meins.

I received an advanced copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
Secrets are unveiled, friendships are torn, and Lumine still can’t figure out why he can’t turn into the werewolf he’s meant to be. In this second volume of the hit webcomic Lumine, Kody is still moody as ever, as Lumine defends and protects his charge (Kody), from bullies at school. Things change between Kody, a witch, and Lumine, a werewolf when Kody gets kidnapped alongside his nemesis from school. Can Lumine come into his full power before it’s too late? Or will he and Kody succumb to their weaknesses at the very end?
This was fantastic! I love reading the Lumine webcomic from Webtoon. This second volume comes together in this stunning graphic novel, full of questions, violence, and a mysterious being at the end of the book. Kody and Lumine’s friendship borders on staying alive after Kody is kidnapped and to be sold on the black market. I was so happy when Lumine came into his power, aka The Werewolf. I can’t wait for volume 3, or perhaps I should catch up on Webtoon instead…

How can anyone not fall in love with Lumine? In this second volume, our tiny fluffy werewolf is ever more determined to be the very best bodyguard to his outcast witch ward, Kody, who is still being mercilessly bullied at school. Even a single former friend who shunned him has no chance at getting past Kody’s barriers after betraying him, and it seems that Lumine will also pay for that betrayal with Kody’s everlasting disdain and mistrust. Yet, when a fellow student is in danger, Kody comes to the rescue at his own expense and Lumine must find the beast within him to save them both. Beautiful artwork, emotional and endearing storytelling. Just a great manga. I can’t wait for the next volume!

A good continuation of the story and now that a certain cat is out of the bag I am interested to see how that particular revelation develops.

This volume doesn't really have a story arc independently. This is definitely a case of a webcomic that doesn't translate well to graphic novel form. As a continuation of the first volume, the story is definitely getting more intriguing, but I'm not sure any questions were answered by this one.

Thank you NetGalley and Webtoon for this ARC for review.

Lumine Volume two is a story of an anti-social boy named Kody who has trouble with the bullies at his school. Lumine is a were dog who vows to protect Kody even though both of them are having trouble with their powers, and Kody is not letting Lumine in. This book has beautiful graphics and a story that will be identifiable to many kids. It has a found family feeling and touches on real problems even though we are in a fantasy world.
There is quite a lot of violence in the book so I would say it is for older audiences.

Thank you Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group, WEBTOON Unscrolled, and NetGalley for the advanced electronic review copy of this book. This is a great continuation of the series with beautiful, detailed art, nice characters, and a good, relatable plot for the middle grade/YA audience. I like how the story progresses and am looking forward to the next volume.

I love the art style of the author. The mystery of what’s really going on with Lumine’s lineage has me intrigued.

Kody is a witch but he can’t use magic without coughing up blood.

Kody’s dad Aiden is investigating the kidnapping of witches.

The ending was a cliffhanger! Can’t wait to read more!

Thanks, NetGalley for the ARC.

I absolutely adored this book. The graphics are beautiful and the story was exciting from page one. I am already obsessed and can't wait for the next one to be released. I can't wait to find out more about Lumine's backstory because this one left us on a cliff hanger and now to patiently wait for the next volume. Lumine addresses different issues children have such as not fitting in, bullying, and friendship. I will definitely recommend this to my patrons. They are going to love this series!

Lumine is a werewolf, who is the bodyguard of another child named Kody. Kody often finds himself in trouble and is being bullied at school. Lumine wants to help but Kody doesn't want help. Lumine has a job to do now that witches are being kidnapped but he also has to protect his own secret!

Ive never read any of the Lumine comic before but I really like the idea of it! I think the art is a nice style and while we have 2-3 different plot focal points they all seem to be moving at a decent pace. Ill be interested to see where else this one goes in the future!

The art style is adorable. However, I have no idea what is going on in the story. There seems to be multiple storylines here, but we get no information about any of them. It's so incredibly slow. Hundreds of pages and very little happens.

I received this as an ARC copy from NetGalley.

I would like to start off by saying thank you so much for the opportunity to read this book as an ARC. I bought the paperback of the first book in order to read the second, and I’m so glad I did. I finished both of them in one sitting.

The art style is incredible, the characters’ emotions show to be quite complicated for their ages, and I love that these books show the effects that bullying can have on someone.

I loved this book immediately for the beautiful design. I loved it even more for the plot and the characters.

Lumine is so sweet and protective. Kody is definitely going through it and trying to deal with everything on his own while others try to prove he doesn’t have to.

I really like the friendship that they have and how we can see their dynamic more clearly.

I will definitely be looking for these in the future as the rest of the story is told! Thank you so much again!

This book was ok. It's a wattpad web tune that's been published. I didn't hate, I just didn't like it either.

This book was amazing and I devoured this book in just a few sittings! I loved the character development and how the story progressed.

Before Lumine met Kody, he was a down-on-his-luck weredog with nowhere to turn. Now that Lumine has a job as Kody’s bodyguard and a place to live, his life should be simpler. But things are only growing more complicated. Kody is still doing everything to keep Lumine at arms length, mysteries are piling up, and witch kids are going missing.

Lumine tries to protect the antisocial Kody from his bullies, but can’t figure out why popular witch girl Calla is doing everything in her power to make him miserable. And there are more questions surrounding the brooding teenager—how come his magic doesn’t work properly? And why is there a cat-shaped spirit haunting him?

Plus, Lumine has his own mystery to solve. He is a werewolf, a rare and powerful type of magical being thought to be extinct, but he can’t transform properly. Lumine is stuck in either his human form or as a tiny puppy dog, and has no idea why.

When danger closes in on Kody, Lumine does everything to protect him, even at the risk of revealing his big, fluffy secret. To keep each other safe, the unlikely duo will have to unlock the mysteries of their powers . . . and figure out how to get along


I enjoyed volume 2 of Lumine much more than volume 1. The graphics are great and the plot of the story really starts moving. Lumine volume 2 has a little bit of everything. Many people can relate to the characters because of the bullying aspect and keeping people at arms length such as Kody does. I wish this book would have been around when I was in High School. I just loved it and cannot wait to read more of the story.

Oh, how I wish this was around when I was in middle school and high school. I absolutely love how this story is progressing, and I can't wait to read more of it. I love the action in it. What's also great about this series is that I can read it with my daughter, who also loves it.

Thank you, Netgalley, and Wattpad, Webtoon Books for this eArc. This is my honest review.

I love this story, it's about a kid who is bullied and everyone avoids him because of his bully. Codys and his new friend who is the cutest little white puppy who has a secret too are the cutest friends. I love watching as these two grow closer and can't wait to see where their story goes.
