Giant Days Vol. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 by John Allison (Author), Max Sarin (Illustrator) - I am just going to combine all 8 trades here. Giant days is mostly about 3 women in college, their friendship, relationships, mishaps, etc. Each volume has about 4 issues, and its mostly a self contained arc with an over-arching story. Like Daisy learning to drive, or going to a wedding together, stuff like that. One issue about Ed dealing with his gfs alcoholism was p bleak, esp because a friend encourages him to not leave the relationship because its the first sign of trouble. Eeesh. Run away, Ed. Run away.

The Banks by Roxane Gay (author), Ming Doyle (artist) - I just started this but it is, thus far, fucking delightful. A family is basically a family of thieves. They're Black and they only steal from white folks. The mother and daughter are all in on this, but the granddaughter thought it was terrible and rebelled. Well grandaughter gets into the white-centric world of investment banking and is denied another promotion. Pissed off at the rich white world, she joins her mom and grandma in crime. I love the premise and I dont want this to go wrong. but, sadly, a book generally has to have conflict.
