The world in the Nothing Special world is so fun. I really like the personified plants and the different types of magical powers. The plot of this one paired really well with the second volume. It was fun to read. I love the character design and the art of the world. The marginalia was also very fun.

I received this DRC from NetGalley.

I still love the art style. It's so cute. I think I didn't love this volume quite as much as the other two in and of itself, since it's a continuation of vol 2, and doesn't feel like as much of a full separate story, and one of the reveals was already partially revealed before, but it is still quite enjoyable and gets a high star rating from me. I liked how much Lasser had going on, and how much focus there was on him. Things were just happening to Declan; he didn't actually do a whole lot except freak out. Still a fun comic with lots of cute tidbits.

This series has brought me so much joy!
I've been having such a good time and I hope the author has a lot more adventures planned for us in the future.

There are so many good things about these books, but probably my favorite is the way the author handles relationships. Our main characters got together in the first book, and instead of the following books being them breaking up and getting together (which drives me crazy) instead we get to see two people in love who deal with the challenges as a team.
I think more writers should take a note from her books!

Amazing as always!

Nothing Special, Volume Three follows Declan, Callie, and their troop of friends, picking up right where vol 2 left off. Declan is to inherit his grandmother's magic, but when Lesser discovers his brother's plan to steal the magic, things start to go amiss!

I love everything about this series and highly recommend. It's perfect for teens and above. The series demonstrates how healthy relationships function, and has tons of action, adventure, romance, and quirky, hilarious characters!

The best part about this series is the amazingly cute artwork! It's beautifully illustrated and has a really gorgeous color palette, and the characters are adorably drawn.

5/5 stars

Another fun, witty, adventure with some of my favorite characters! As always, my favorite characters are the veggie spirits. They provide such great comic relief. You can tell that the author has so much fun creating this series. I love all the Easter eggs to pop culture that can be found in the background of the scenes. I also like the personal touches the author adds and how they sometimes break the fourth wall. This series is just so fun! The two main character’s relationship is precious. I adore them. I also love all the side characters. I found myself giggling so often while reading. Definitely a favorite graphic novel series.
