Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life by Bryan Lee O'Malley 168 pp.
Since the movie came out and there's been a lot of talk about it among our younger staff & volunteers, I was curious. As graphic novels go this first volume was so-so. 23-year-old Scott Pilgrim plays in a band, has a teen-aged girlfriend, lives in small flat with his friend Wallace. He begins having dreams about a delivery girl who he then meets in person. Immediately after meeting her he gets an email and then letter from one of her ex-boyfriends who plans to destroy him. This is the premise for the entire series: Scott must defeat Ramona's seven ex-boyfriends. Intriguing but not outstanding.
