About the author

Rainbow Rowell writes all kinds of stuff.
Sometimes she writes about adults (ATTACHMENTS, LANDLINE). Sometimes she writes about teenagers (ELEANOR & PARK, FANGIRL). Sometimes — actually, a lot of the time — she writes about lovesick vampires and guys with dragon wings (THE SIMON SNOW TRILOGY).
Recently, she’s been writing short stories. Her first collection, SCATTERED SHOWERS, is out now. She also writes the monthly SHE-HULK comic for Marvel.
Rainbow lives in Omaha, Nebraska.

Turns out I was worried for nothing!
In my opinion, this is a faithful and honorific reintroduction into the world of the Runaways. Everyone here seems to be portrayed accurately and it does a nice job of gingerly bringing readers up to speed with what's been going on with the Runaways since we last saw them... without beating them over the head with a "here's what you missed on Runaways" recap.
The art is lovely and I really enjoy the character designs of the Runaways as we see them now, years later. The plot is fun and interesting and keeps you on your toes. The writing is excellent - Rainbow Rowell does a good job of writing "young" people without making them sound like terrible, annoying people like a lot of writers do! A lot of authors make it pretty clear they haven't interacted with anyone under 25 in a very long time - Rowell doesn't have this problem.
My only complaint is that I wish this book was longer... but that's not really a complaint, just a wish. ;) I'll definitely buy the second volume when it's released later this year.
My only critique is I really do not like Kris Anka's look for Karolina and Chase. I know it's a completely superficial critique, but both looks make the characters seem over a decade older than they should be and, especially Karolina just doesn't look like herself. She used to have a casual, hippie-lite style - jeans and cut off/sleeveless t's and now she dresses like bad She-Ra Cosplay, so it threw me while reading it because I had to keep reminding myself that this is Karolina even though it doesn't look like or resemble her. But again, completely superficial critique, otherwise I love the book...

Can't wait to read volume 2 :)

makes me emotional with every page.I cannot recommend this highly enough!!

Only reason I did not give it 5 stars is I am not so fond of the artwork but that may change as I read more of the new series. Bring on volume 2 🙂
