![]() ![]() Highly recommended as soft gentle read if you’re okay with grief/death as part of a normal story. Hello Im a queer comic artist and writer who likes ghosts and skeletons a lot. I kinda wanted the story to be longer, not because it was lacking but rather because I enjoyed reading it too much and wanted to hold on to it for longer. Plus there is some romance, some fun investigative work done by Hamal, and Blue’s story that we slowly discover (plus a few other ghosts make a story appearance too). I loved the artwork as it made me want to live in a botanical garden type of home (I do wish I had a wonderful green thumb, which sadly I do not have), and the fact that it touches on death, grief, and hope is all up to my street and made this book even mroe precious. Blue notices that maybe he needs to figure this out as he doesn’t want to move on and also, Hamal may be in trouble. ![]() That is until things start working a little weird wonky in the ghost world and the ghosts reach out to Hamal. This makes him a bit of a weirdo, as he may look like he’s talking to himself (to others) and also, the ghosts affect his reality a little, particularly Blue, who just can’t seem to go away. Taproot is a story about a gardener, Hamal, who can see ghosts. I got this as a gift fromt he wonderful Lauren (aka The Bookihs Fairy) who is a bundle of sunlight. I have a soft spot for botanical graphic novels, and if it involves ghosts, or grief, I am extra into it. ![]()
