Thank you to Netgalley and Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press for a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review!

This was a total 5 stars for me, I enjoyed it even more than Vol1 and can’t wait to read more of the story - I need the next volume asap!

Suitor Armor is a very cute story set in medieval times about hidden fairies, secret romances, magical metal knights and some light court politics. This time around, in Vol2, I got exactly what I felt was missing in Vol1 - the story gets a little bit darker and more complex (while still maintaining its whimsicality!) and I was sucked in! I also absolutely love the art style and the color palette - it’s a very aesthetically pleasing graphic novel.

I love how the story progressed between our FMC and our MMC plus the other important characters and their own relationships - volume 2 has a bonus chapter which I ADORED about a side romance happening with another set of characters. I also love that we got a darker sense of the conflict happening in the story and how it’s impacting its inhabitants. This volume also progressed well and the pace fit the story very well in my reader’s opinion.

I would still highly recommend this series - even more so after reading Volume 2. I had a great time reading this one and can’t wait for the next iteration and more of the story!

⊰ 5 stars

First of all, I would like to thank NetGalley, Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press and Purpah for allowing me to read an e-arc of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I have to say, I am absolutely OBSESSED with Suitor Armor. I love all the characters, they each have their own backstory and development they go through within Volume Two. Each character has a purpose, but we also see fun interactions outside of that. I especially loved getting to see Reimund and Kirsi getting to know each other better and falling in love in this volume.
I love how we get more of an insight into the war and the world building that is done in this volume. Getting to see the dynamics outside of the castle walls was very refreshing and interesting.

I would absolutely recommend reading this series and can't wait to read more of Suitor Armor!

I had such a great time reading this book. It was very well written story wise. I like the world and the characters. They had really great development over the course of the story. I felt that the art was really beautiful. The characters are so beautifully designed. I really can’t wait for the next book in the series.

A marvelous continuation of a captivating story, plus the art is dreamy. All characters are unique and have their own goals, I’m rooting for all of them. Still, verrrry nervous about Krisi and Lucia’s relationship once she realizes the truth. Cannot wait to see more develop between her and Modeus

I love the Suitor Armor series, I've been following since it started on Webtoons so it's im very excited they are going to be printed into physical books so more people can enjoy it.

This was a very easy and enjoyable read.

Romantasy graphic novel based on a Webtoon. This book is so beautiful. I can't wait to see where this is going. Once I started reading I could not put it down.

5 stars

"You make me feel warm"

I didn't think it was possible for me to love the second volume more than the first but boy was I wrong! This book made me FEEL. I wept, I giggled, I gasped- I hugged my e-reader for like 10 minutes when I finished. There is a beautiful message in this story and the plot and character development in this volume were perfection. The main story and bonus story both end on cliff hangers and I don't know how I'm going to survive the wait for the next volume.

"suitor of armour" is a captivating webtoon set in a fantastical world inhabited by fairies, elves, mages, and other mythical creatures. the narrative follows our female main character, lucia, who serves as the lady-in-waiting to the future queen and her bestfriend, kriski. as she assists in preparing for her upcoming wedding to king reimund, a war between humans and fairies rages outside the castle walls. <spoiler>a notable twist in the story is that lucia is secretly a fairy.</spoiler> so amidst this turmoil, lucia becomes enchanted by a magical suit of armor, modeus, brought to life by the court mage for a royal tournament.

the webtoon thoughtfully addresses themes of race and identity through faeries, elves and humans and their complicated relationship. the portrayal serves as a interesting commentary on racial issues and historical injustices and i loved how subtly but clearly the author addressed it. moreover, the incorporation of lgbtq+ themes was handled with sensitivity and care, adding layers of representation that were just lovely. i also really loved how lucia's family history was carefully and intricately woven into the narrative.

also i absolutely adored the bonus chapter! it was so adorable :(

all in all, it is a lovely webtoon and the art style is stunning, adding to the overall charm of the story. i highly recommend!

Yes Yes YES!! I love this series so much!! This installment was just as good as the first. In another world, this is an incredible romance novel starring Modeus and Lucia and I have bought every copy. I want that story so bad that I will wait for volume three on my hands and knees. Thanks for keeping us well-fed, Purpah.

This is like popcorn.
Beautiful illustrations and metaphors. The volumes cannot come out fast enough.

Such a cute art style and a fun plot! I stumbled across the first one as I was starting to use Netgalley, and I was excited when I saw the second one there, too. It's a whimsical art style along with a story that is cute but also has a darker side.

Thank you to Netgalley and Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press for this arc!

Suitor Armor: Volume 2 by Purpah is so good. I loved every single second of it and I couldn't put it down for a second. I rated it 4 stars because I really loved the story.

3.5/5 stars

The webtoon moving from the webtoon format to a book looks amazing! I would recommend anyone reading this with on an eReader to try to find a way to read in color because the artwork is stunning in full color!

I have been a fan of Purpah’s ‘Suitor Armor’ comic on WEBTOON since the very beginning; I remember getting immediately absorbed into this epic fantasy romance, gobbling up each available episode, but then feeling sad once I quickly ran out of new episodes to read. Seeing that ‘Suitor Armor’ is now being traditionally published for more of the world to access really just makes me so dang happy. And getting to revisit this world thanks to NetGalley & Ten Speed Press is truly a gift.

So obviously, this being Volume 2 of the series, if you’re reading this review but haven’t read Volume 1, it’s pretty fair to say that you may run into some spoilers ahead, even if I’m not intentionally trying to share spoilers. That being said - this comic truly gets better & better with each episode &, now, each volume. Volume 2 expands more on the world building but also on the character-building. The focus is still Lucia & Modeus, but I really love just how many characters we meet & spend time with, & that they all feel so real & flawed & well-fleshed out (apologies to Modeus for that phrase choice). I loved learning more about the world outside of the Castle walls & getting more of the lore/history of this world, even though themes begin to turn dark in this volume.

And I just have to say: Modeus is truly one of my favorite characters in anything EVER. I love him, I love his story, I love learning more about him, & I love his newly found sass/attitude. This will forever be a Modeus fan page.


‘Suitor Armor’ brings so much out of me: laughing, crying, swooning, worrying, & gasping…often all of those happening within each chapter. Purpah has not only given us absolutely stunning & dynamic art, but a story as layered as any other epic fantasy, comic or not. I want to stay in this world forever, so I will just be over here binging episodes of the comic & anxiously awaiting each new published volume.

Thank you (again) to NetGalley & Ten Speed Press for providing an advanced digital copy for review. All thoughts & opinions expressed are my own.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to continue reviewing this series!
Suitor Armor is a very unique story because it keeps many mysteries about each character, about Lucia and Mordeus' past. The first volume is a bit slow, but by the second volume you can understand what is happening as Lucia discovers her ability to use magic, with Mordeus as the only one who knows the truth.
I can't wait to continue reading it on Webtoon.

Suitor Armor: Volume 2 is a wonderful continuation of the story from where it left off in the first installment. This graphic novel is an engaging read making it easy to finish in one sitting. Unfortunately it ends in a cliff hanger and I can't wait to find out what happens next! I would definitely recommend this book!

Very Sweet second installment! second installment the first book felt a little slow. I did actually enjoy this volume a little more and already pre-ordered it for shelf.
Definitely a quick read with beautiful sweet drawings
