For graphic novel fans, Jaime Olmos presents the story of a college band called Jabberwocky. Years later, they gather together for a reunion filled with friendship, romance, mystery, and a member found dead. Grab a copy to find out what happens. Thank you for the terrific book review.

The review highlights the importance of embracing every opportunity in life due to its brevity and unpredictability. It emphasizes the significant impact that friends, family, and even foes have on our experiences and memories. The book "Sonora Pass," authored by Jaime Olmos and illustrated by Kevin Nichols, explores the theme of friendship. Nice review.

I love books about friendship. They are beautiful to read about but difficult to keep in reality. The comic book Sonora Pass is one I'd love to read because of the promise of an amazing storyline.

One of the most traumatizing things one can experience in life is Divorce. I hope this couple find a way to kiss and make up at the the end and the divorce issue becomes a thing of past. Big kudos to the author for winning BOTD with this book.

Thank you for your great review. I'm glad that you enjoyed it so much and it was edited so well too. In general, I do like books about friendship and different feelings, but I'm not a fan of comic books. Perhaps because I never grew up with them and I'm old now. I know my teenage son does like them. I will let those who enjoy this type of book read it while I pass on it.

I have never liked to read graphic novels and while I admit that plots and character developments, relationships and backgrounds are on par with any other genre in literature, I don't like them and never will. I didn't even watch any of the numerous movies and TV-series based on them and thereby prefer to pass this book. Still congratulations on BOTD!

A captivating tale that seamlesly blends humor, mystery, and twist. I appreciate the quality of the illustrations in this book. The artwork brings the story to life to enrich our reading experience. The storyline sounds promising, but I don't really enjoy graphic novels. This book is a must read for fans of this genre. Thank you for the recommendation. Nice review.

I like stories about friendship and to mix it with crime and suspense in a comic book form is very interesting so I’m looking forward to digging into this one to find out how Esteban and his friends addressed the challenges they encountered.

'Official Review: Sonora Pass' by Jaime Olmos has a thought-provoking introduction. It serves as a good background to the action thriller story for curious readers. The point that this is a story about friendship is worth mentioning in the review. Readers will note a unique blend of love, crime, and mystery in this book. Also, as mentioned in the review, the story focuses on friends, family, and foes we've had throughout our lives and have impacted our experiences. Learning that the book is recommendable to readers who enjoy comic books with a hint of crime and suspense was great!

I enjoy comic books and have all of mine saved from the 60s. Modern graphic novels, however, are a bit new to me, but this might just be worth checking out. Congrats to all those involved in bringing this story to life.
