    <body><![CDATA[Loved the idea of communicating with a comatose stranger, bonded to her only because he was also hurt in the same terrorist attack as she was.  The public art attacks are a lot of fun, though I have to admit that I did twinge over the bubbles in the fountain - I've been wanting to to do that for a l...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/67484108">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Castellucci's (of Boy Proof fame-- totally good) first graphic novel. From the hip new Minx imprint. Nice mix of homeland security style paranoia and exuberant teenage art loving.

    <body><![CDATA[I read this for my junior highers' graphic novel unit. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Castellucci manages to work in discussions of terrorism, conformity, friendship, art, rebellion, and people generally seeking for connection in this easy-to-read graphic novel. Five very different Janes get together and ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40216862">more...</a>]]></body>
