I was introduced to the Blue Monday series a few years ago when a classmate of mine recommended them to me. She let me borrow the first three volumes and I was instantly hooked. The story follows a girl named Bleu who is obsessed with British culture, Pepsi, boys and Adam Ant.
One of my favorite features of Blue Monday is that it makes loads of music references and at the beginning of each comic, there are songs listed as the “soundtrack” for the story. This really helps to put you into the right frame of mind.
The books are currently out of print so I hunted the first volume down on Amazon. It ended only costing about $7 with shipping. Not too bad, if I do say so myself.
