Graffiti Moon in Book freaks

Nov 02, 2011 Damaris (GoodChoiceReading) rated it it was amazing · review of another edition

I love this book! It was recommended to me by another fellow blogger and once I read the blurb, I knew I had to read it. It was everything I had expected it to be and more. Cath Crowley’s writing is almost poetic. I was quickly lost inside the book and couldn’t get out until I was done reading it. It’s such a fast read and very easy to follow. There is nothing complicated about it.

Graffiti Moon is told from three different perspectives, Lucy, Ed, and Leo’s points of views. Let me tell you how m I love this book!

Graffiti Moon is told from three different perspectives, Lucy, Ed, and Leo’s points of views. Let me tell you how much I loved getting inside the heads of these three. They were hilarious and I truly felt a connection to all three of them. I also really liked that Leo’s parts in the book are written in verse. I thought that was a nice change.

Lucy is set on finding the street artist named, Shadow. She feels this huge pull to his art and thinks that Shadow is everything she wants and more. Only problem is no one knows who Shadow and his partner in crime, Poet, really are. Their identity has never been revealed. She sets out with her closest friends one night to find Shadow, only to end up bumping into three guys she could care less about. Especially since one of them is Ed, the boy she went out on a date with once and the date had ended in pure disaster and left Ed with his nose broken. Lucy and her friends tag along with the three boys to a party and things just get crazy from there. Ed agrees to help Lucy find Shadow, even though he doesn’t quite understand her obsession with him.

Once they set out the story just gets even more interesting. I loved every minute of it. Lately, I’ve been reading a lot more contemporary YA and loving them. This is definitely a book I think should be added to everyone’s list of MUST-READ, MUST-BUY. Cath Crowley’s descriptions of Shadow and Poet’s artwork were very easy to picture in my head. I don’t have one negative thing to say about this book. It’s a beautiful story full of art and realistic characters. The characters are relatable and their lives are easily believable. There are so many moments in Graffiti Moon that made me laugh out loud, and a nice romance that builds very slowly, but perfect in every way. A Good Choice for Reading!

Aug 10, 2012 Jay rated it really liked it

Shelves: 2012

The story was really well written. I think it's hard to pull off writing about art in a really impressive way, but the author does in this book. The main two characters have beliefs that they have to change through the story, and the misunderstandings and the pain of this are shown really well. I enjoyed watching the characters grow. The use of the back-and-forth narration between the two main characters is especially effective... especially the fact that each section starts just a short while * ...more
