Seconds

Seconds, by Bryan Lee O'Malley, 336 pages
Seconds
This is a tricky one to explain without giving it all away.  Let me just say that this book had all of the humor and spirit of the Scott Pilgrim series, but with the satisfaction of the story being contained in one volume. It also had a lot of heart, if you'll forgive such a hokey phrase. Katie is a brilliant chef, opening her own restaurant- or at least trying to.  Setbacks keep frustrating her, as does the fact that she still lives over the restaurant she started and is leaving.  One night full of a series of terrible events, though, ends differently when Katie is faced with the option of a second chance.  If she had a second chance, what would she do differently?  And would anyone really be satisfied with only one second chance? (Yes, I realize the awkward phrasing ^_^) I really enjoyed this.
