As someone who has watched Revenge from day one I was expecting a whole lot more than this graphic novel delivered. The first half revisits information fans are already aware of and the latter Revenge: The Secret Origin of Emily Thorne just wasn't good. Mar 20, Thunderreads rated it really liked it. The artwork itself was absolutely beautiful and I liked getting to know more of her backstory and why she doesn't kill, seeing Nolan and Emily again and learning more about her relationship with Takeda even though it wasn't developed enough. Now, the "big" plot twist was pretty predictable and the insta-love didn't do it for me That bei 3. That being said I did enjoy the book but it is nothing compared with the TV Show which is in my top 3 favorite tv shows of all time Apr 06, Vinko rated it really liked it. Emily Thorne je zapravo moderna interpretacija glavnog protagonista knjige. Jun 25, Caitlin Fisher rated it liked it. You have to be a super fan to love this! Jun 02, Joanna rated it it was ok. I am deeply saddened by this book. I was really hoping for more. It seemed to brief and too silly. I love Revenge. I mean LOVE. But this story did not do it justice, it didn't do Emily justice. So where exactly did it go wrong? Well, let's start with a big one. His character starts out like a shallow jerk who only sh I am deeply saddened by this book. His character starts out like a shallow jerk who only shows interest in Emily once she dies her hair blonde, conforming to his ideal of beauty -- yet somehow, she falls in love with him practically the very next day?? Not even Daniel won her over that quickly and he was charming from the beginning! It just felt like they were trying to recreate Daniel, but did not succeed. And there was far too much emphasis on their love story. This is only like a 50 page book, ain't nobody got time for that! But let me just quickly go back to the blonde hair. Is that the only reason we're given for why she goes blonde after juvie? She dies it for Christophe?? I figured she just went Revenge: The Secret Origin of Emily Thorne to her natural hair color because she moved on from that whole emo phase of her life. Or she was re-embracing her Revenge: The Secret Origin of Emily Thorne Get it? Bad joke. Anyways, it just doesn't make much sense here. Then there's Takeda Or the lack thereof. When I heard there was an Emily Thorne origin story I was dying to read it to find out more about how exactly she found Takeda, what they did in their training, how she developed those mad ninja skills, when she shut off her emotions, all that good stuff. But sadly, we only get a few pages with Takeda. And those just feel like time squandered because they just do the same dance the whole time. He says she's his best student, yet she's not ready for her mission, and he will disown her if she fails. But he still gives her a chance to prove herself And then she fails But then he sends her on a mission anyways, though he makes it clear disown her for sure this time if she fails. I just wanna know how she became his star pupil! And I wanna see her kick butt! Then there's the takedown. It basically plays out like a weak filler episode. Even though there's like 3 twists within the story, which should make it more exciting, they just felt too heavy handed. It went this way, then that way, then there was the Christophe instalove, random flashbacks halfway through the story to another revenge plot I don't want to make this a major rant, though it might be too late for that so I'll just say that there was so much potential with this graphic novel and unfortunately it did not live up to it. I think it is one of the Greatest shows of all Revenge: The Secret Origin of Emily Thorne. And I think Ted Sullivan is an excellent writer. But this just didn't do it for me. Aghh, why Revenge??? I wanted to love you so badly! Maybe my hopes were too high? Maybe the show was too good? This story just didn't live up to it. Feb 16, Amanda rated it it was ok.
