review 1: Overall, I agree with a fellow reviewer when I say that overall I enjoyed this book, but it seemed like the author was simply rehashing the formula from the first book but it was a good quick read. I am a little annoyed, now that I've gotten into this series, that the library only has the first two volumes of the series. So I will have to go to a book shop to find the third one. This book is about Ehwa as a 16 year old girl who discovers the man she really falls in love with and her mother's deepening love and dependence on the traveling salesman, the picture man. Ehwa is learning more about her body and how relationships between women and men work, both emotionally and physically. I did think it was creepy when her beloved's employer, who is 80 years old, sees her once an... mored thinks he can just buy her from her mother with offers of money and land. I'm glad the mother was strong enough to tell him to go bugger himself. Recommended for ages 14+, 3 stars.
review 2: The drawings are beautiful. I found this book by accident at the library. It was one of those happy accidents where a book jumps off the shelf and says read me. Three quarters of the way through in one night. I want to read all three. I have only started to read graphic novels recently and have not finished the first one I started Coraline. This one is endearing and moves quickly. Reminds me of being an adolescent girl and wondering about life and boys. less

I put my review for the entire series in the page for the final book, The Color of Heaven.

#2 in the trilogy, it's a satisfying follow-up to "The Color of Earth."
