Dramacon, Volume 2

Book excerpt: A teen manga writer deals with new friends and an old flame at this year’s anime convention in the second volume of this romantic manga series. It's Christie’s second year at the Yatta Anime convention—and the drama continues to heat up. With her new partner-in-crime, a.k.a. artiste extraordinaire Bethany, she is again promoting her comic. Matt is also back in town, but to Christie’s shock, he came with a girlfriend! Now, not only does Christie have to fend off close-minded manga fans, she also has to try to keep her heart clear of Matt. But in the twilight that separates friendship from something more, things often get a little complicated . . . and at a convention anything is possible. Praise for Dramacon, Volume 1 “Smart, witty, and moving. . . . Using every visual manga convention to its fullest, this ripping little tale is strong and expressive enough to reveal real emotional depth.” —Publishers Weekly “A fun read from beginning to end . . . Compelling enough that you’ll be wanting to find out how things turn out in volume 2. It deals with pretty interesting everyday life relationship matters, so if you’re into that kind of thing and enjoy comedy, you’ll definitely find it to your liking.” —IGN.com
