The way this was written combined with the photographs gave me an old timey, old school feeling really. Thank you to Net Galley and the publishers for this advance reader copy.
A mystery that is also a graphic novel? Count me in, my two favorite things. I loved the way this was written and the pictures are amazing. It really gives you an old timey feeling. I would love to buy the physical copy of this book because I think it would be the best way to read it. The story was great and the pictures were great.
Thank you to Net Galley for this ARC and amazing book! Cold Brewed is a noir masterpiece, blending silent film aesthetics with a prohibition-era world where coffee is currency. The black and white photography used in place of traditional artwork brilliantly captures the dark and moody atmosphere of Jett Cropper’s quest for justice. The unique storytelling and inventive style make this novel an unforgettable experience. I recommend this book to fans of noir and experimental art forms. The narrative is nothing short of beautiful visuals which makes it a must-read for everyone. It gives off a dystopian vibe because currency becomes coffee.
Told through both words and pictures, Cold Brewed takes place in a classic prohibition-era world where coffee is currency. The story uses silent film and film noir techniques, but favors classy black and white photographs over pencil sketches--a grittier grandson of the narrative form developed in Selznick's books "The Invention of Hugo Cabret" and "Wonderstruck."
Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the digital ARC! This book has a great story and great photography. What’s done here in this book was very creative but I didn’t care for it very much. However, it was short and it was something different to read.
Thank you, NetGalley for an advanced ARC of this graphic novel by @lencelotSchaubert
This was a very interesting read, I highly enjoyed seeing real photos overdrawn or digital was a nice refreshing change which I feel gave the story more of a realistic touch and drew me in more to what was happening. You can see the author of this has put a lot of work into this and I appreciated it for what it was and how the story played out.
I would suggest this for others to read and enjoy the ride it takes u on
