How can something so confusing be so entertaining at the same time? I get the same feeling I got many years ago, when I was watching "Twin Peaks". Same mixture of confusion and entertainment. Love it and haven't given up hope yet, that someday all pieces will fall into place. Until then I just let Spencer dazzle me with each new installment. Maybe I will call him the David Lynch of comics in the end. Collects Morning Glories issues #35-38I'm still really liking this story, but I'm starting to feel overwhelmed by the overabundance of mysteries and characters. I used to read every volume over again from the beginning in preparation for reading a new volume, but I had to give that up. Volume 7 was probably the biggest disappointment in the series so far in the sense that it was the shortest volume (only 4 issues long) and there weren't any huge, surprising moments. There's just a ton of stuff happening that I don't quite understand. Plus, all of the things I don't understand are happening to characters that I'm starting to lose track of. Who is who? I'm not really sure. This volume opened with a story about Fortunato, and I couldn't even remember if we had met him before or if he was a new character. My opening paragraph may have you asking yourself why I gave it a 5-star review. Here's the thing...this is a 100-issue story. I've read through Issue #38. That means that I'm not even half-way through yet. I've appreciated Nick Spencer's style of storytelling since Issue #1, and I'm sticking with him until the end. This is still a very captivating story, even as I'm beginning to lose my connection to many of the characters and plot threads. This volume was a very quick read, and it was the first time I bought a volume without immediately reading it. I'm starting to lose interest, but not so much so that I'm going to give up on it.
Do You like book Morning Glories, Vol. 7: Honors (2014)?
This book confuses me to no end, and this volume is no exception. And yet, I can't stop reading it.

The further I get into reading this series the less sense it makes.
