Tämä osa vähän hajosi kun mukaan oli osunut Edin Austraalian matkaa, Susan poikaystävän veljen häitä ja muita kovin eriparisia juttuja.

I'm saving the overall review for the final volume, as there's nothing really there to distinguish each volume from each other.

Book 6 of 7 in the Giant Days Library Edition series, beautifully printed books that I get to read through in my Tackleverse deep dive. This book matures even further from the early stories, and gets more adult and meaningful and significant as the characters grow. This one may be my favorite of them all.
This book contains: DEAN AS A SECRET NUDE FIGURE DRAWING MODEL that Esther and Daisy and Ingrid sketch, the Ubuntu tattoo, oh my god. And Ed and Nina! The Halloween party with Ingrid. Esther starts crushing on... Ed? Who's now all healed and finally finding Nina! McGraw and the absolutely insane 60 year old creepy bald friend Cliff. And then Cliff ends up owning the Winter Village that Daisy and Ed work at... which is a cult, which is then brought down by new freshman student Saffy, under Daisy's RA tutelage. McGraw and Esther find a fun friendship bonding over science (because of course her first boyfriend, The Boy, was once just Tim's inventor assistant). Esther falls in love with scientist Richard Owen, inventor of 'pull down to refresh', but leaves him over the hyperloop. Daisy goes up against awful student Coralie. Coralie finds love with... Richard Owen? Nina accidentally falls off the wagon and makes a mess of things. And then goes off again and makes a REAL mess of things. Susan goes into private investigator mode to find out who's robbing the comic shop Esther works at. Callum has a lot of sketches of Esther. Noir mode comics here. Dean gets a dog! And Esther finds out and they have to be sneaky about it. Daisy does fearful driving lessons. McGraw's sloppy brother Graham. The dog escapes and Daisy almost hits it until McGraw and Graham save the day!
Then there's a new illustrated chapter which I always love (great teeth, you can always tell). Graham's wedding, and Esther and Daisy share a room. Feelings, drama. Then a story on Ed in Australia, with family, local politics, some goons, really the whole works! Even some mild kidnapping and emus. Nina really is great.
