“Gina and the Last City on Earth” is the 9th book in the middle grade graphic novel series “HiLo” by Judd Winick. The title character, HiLo, was a robot boy with powers who has recently been turned into a human boy without powers. Along with his friends Gina and DJ, they have saved the world and fought off numerous threats. This book features the friends traveling through time to save the world. Characters in the series are diverse and each book teaches kids about difficult situations and emotions, such as loss, responsibility, friendship, and love, while still managing to be extremely funny. This book series is very popular among middle graders. I would recommend purchasing the first book in the series if you don’t already have it to see if the books will be popular in your library.
