*** I received this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review, thank you so much to NetGalley and Rosarium Publishing for the opportunity to read and review Baaaad Muthaz! ***

Where do I even start! This was kind of meh for me it is more like 2.5 stars for me round it down to three stars on Goodreads, this graphic novel was only ok for me. But wait I am getting ahead of myself let me start out with why I really wanted to read this graphic novel. When I was browsing through NetGalley to see if they had any graphic novels to review I find this graphic novel Baaaad Muthaz first when I read the synopsis that this graphic novel is about these women who are truly baaaad and are space pirates who are in search of the almighty booty. I was sold I thought this graphic novel would be really funny and a great graphic novel I especially love the art on the book cover. Now I did absolutely love the artwork in this graphic novel the artwork reminded me somewhat of the Hawkeye graphic novel artwork and the writing style flow well and was on point but that is all that I love about this graphic novel. Sorry, I really didn't even love or like this graphic novel so much there were some funny moments in this book that I did enjoy but I kind of got confused with the plotline and concept of Baaaad Muthaz. I really didn't understand at first on what I was reading at the beginning chapters it really didn't give us any background on how these women got together or how they become space pirates. Plus this graphic novel is a really short book that I don't even know how I feel about each character I really didn't feel anything for them, yes these women are a bad-ass but I really didn't feel or connect to any of them. I think I will not continue on reading Baaaad Muthaz series which is a shame because I really love the idea of Baaaad Muthaz but this graphic novel fell kind of flat for me which is very disappointing to me.
