This sequel to the New York Four was better than the first one. I really liked everything about this graphic novel. I liked the story, the drawings. Everyone was growing up. This takes place the second semester of their freshman year. Less emphasis on Riley - perhaps that's why this appealed to me.

Glad I read it.

(It's frustrating that Goodreads thinks this book and New York Four are the same book. I had a hard time keeping a review for Four and a review for Five without being told it was a duplicate and overwriting one.) ( )

It had been so long since I read the first title (New York Four) that I forgot I had read it. That being said the book has enough detail and background in it to work as a standalone. Unfortunately the title still didn't totally work for me. Some things were resolved too easily after being long drawn out problems. Other things weren't really resolved at all. It's just a frustrating series for me.

The artwork though is pretty amazing which gives the book it's second star. ( )
