📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Ananth Hirsh
When it comes to luck, the only kind
Penny Brighton has is bad luck. Already having to vacate her apartment, Penny
loses her job on moving day to boot. Her luck looks up a little when her friend
Helen finds her a new place to live and a new job at her family’s laundromat.
The new pad is Helen’s not empty storage unit and Penny’s new boss is Helen’s
12-year-old brother. Even when things start to look up again when Penny finds a
love interest, things are likely to go south for this rather unlucky girl.
Originally a webcomic, fans of
Penny are likely to be happy about this print story. I, on the other hand, found
the story a little bizarre at times (especially the end) and not just because I
couldn’t get past a 12-year-old boss. This story does have some fun parts if
you give it a try. If you are looking to get into graphic novels, I don’t
recommend starting here though.
