A review by ellelainey
Mismatched by Anne Camlin
4.0
Emma was never my favourite Austen, but I thought maybe a modern interpretation and a graphic novel would be the best way to explore the story in another element.
This has some great, really cute artwork, and the story is nicely executed. For me, it's a 4* because Evan was - as he's supposed to be, I think - self absorbed and whiney at times. I liked the cast of secondary, background characters more than I liked Evan, but he did have some good character growth as the story progressed, though it was minor and a little late. I'm also not a fan of the whole mix-up of falling for his sister's husband's brother, which is literally his in-law. Though they're not related, it's a little close for comfort.
