"Sonora Pass" is a story about the power of memory. Esteban is haunted by his memories of the past, and it's only when he is able to reconcile with those memories that he can move on with his life. The past is something that we all carry with us, whether we like it or not. This book explores the ways in which we deal with the past and how it shapes our present and future.

This review was done so that it increased my interest. The friends and their relationship added to the intrigue and the unraveling of the plot. Having an additional level of moral implications helps make this more interesting to me. Looking forward to this read.

I haven't jumped into the graphic novel genre, but this one sounds intriguing. Olmos and Nichols created an adventure-filled murder mystery. A member of the Jabberwocky band is found dead, and Jonah goes on a journey of investigation to solve the case. Great job on the book review!

Good friends is needed and is essential to our lives so we don't make the wrong decisions in life and we can have prosperity. The title is intriguing yet suspensful and yet attracting.

It seems that this book teaches lessons on friendship by following Esteban, Celia, and the rest of their friends. I like books that tackle the importance of friendship, so I'm gonna read this book soon. Congratulations to the author on BOTD!

Graphic Novels and Comics never were my cup of tea, possibly because my country was deprived this cultural phenomena in my childhood years. I find their stories quite educational even though mostly they reference to superheroes. Anyway, thanks for gifting the book and congrats with BOTD!

This review is very informative but having sampled this book, I discovered that graphic novels are not my cup of tea. But, as David notes, the illustrations are great and the underlying morale of friendship is commendable.

I see the illustrations, which greatly impressed me, had no effect on you. Anyway, the mention you make of ‘marinated’ bad blood between Esteban and Rodrigo is astonishing, flying in the face of the message about the importance of good friendship. Talk about not letting go!

This murder-mystery graphics novel about solving who killed a music band member after a reunion sounds like a nail-biting page turner. I also like that there is a focus on friendship. Great review!

Sonora Pass" by Jaime Olmos is just incredible! This graphic novel effortlessly combines romance and mystery into a thrilling narrative. The storytelling is so engaging, managing to intertwine two compelling stories flawlessly. You'll be kept guessing and those unexpected plot twists? They'll blow your mind.
Now, there are a few minor hiccups here and there, but it's clear that this book has been professionally edited. And while I'd say it's not exactly suitable for younger readers due to some profanity and slightly steamy scenes, it doesn't take away from its brilliance.
Honestly, I can't give it anything less than 4 out of 4 stars. There's really nothing negative to say about it. If you're into graphic novels that blend romance and crime mystery, this one is a must-read. Don't miss out on this perfectly narrated masterpiece!
