Review: Scott Pilgrim books 2-6 - Bryan Lee O'Malley

So, Scott Pilgrim is a wacky kid. Well, he's 23 or 24, so not technically a kid, but the way he carries on you wouldn't be too sure. I enjoyed this series. I was laughing my head off pretty much the whole time I sped through these books. They were just really hilarious and completely bizarre. Sometimes they were a little confusing, like in the beginning of book 2. It seemed like each page was a different scene and that there was no real time frame, just a collection of moments. I loved Scott's memory scenes, or lack of memory scenes. He really didn't remember that much. If you liked the movie and you like reading comics then check these out.
