Is it good? I've tried to get into it quite a lot of times but haven't really progressed very far into the story. I don't know it just isn't very 'wow' at the start and I get bored and end up not reading any more.

So if anyone here reads it, does it get better?

I really would like to get involved seeing as it's on my dash pretty much all the time on tumblr

Yeah, it gets SO much better!
The first three acts of it are incredibly slow and all over the place, but that's because Hussie was still taking page suggestions etc from the forum users! This stopped at act 4 though, and the story starts unfolding and making sense and making you go "oh shit I remember that oh my godddd", hehehe~ It's definitely worth trucking through the first three acts, especially for the end of act 5 flash! Gogdamn is that thing amazing!! (Also, if it confuses/bores you too much, it's alright to skip through the troll romance bit!! It's really only used in fandom things anyways)
Speaking of fandom, you should reaaallly try to avoid them They're high up on the list of horrible fandoms, ahahah... Like, sonic/pony/hetalia bad... Thankfully it's easy to just avoid/ignore those people~


If you ever want the music, I have pretty much everything up until Volume 9 :3 ♥

Yeah, it's pretty good. The story does get quite confusing at times, and it certainly isn't a 'shock and awe' read, but it's quite humourous, interesting, well thought out and well worth the time you'll end up putting in. You've got to read the 'sweet bro and hella jeff' comics first to understand some of the stuff that is referenced along Dave's travels, but you should enjoy those, and there aren't many. The first few pages are a little slow, you're right, but once you get past Act/Chapter 2, then you'll notice a difference.

To conclude, I'd definitely recommend reading it.

Oh man, thanks for reminding me to finish reading that~
Gotta finish re-reading Homestuck and actually read act 6 first though, a friend's been yelling at me about it for months now.... >w<

[Trixie]

Eh, I started reading Homestuck, but I gave up at around the first intermission. After reading a bit, Homestuck just didn't really turn out to be my thing. However, I still think the art and storyline is... well, interesting and worth giving a try.

Homestuck? More like Homosuck

Oh wow, rude. But I get where you're coming from

Yes, Homestuck is a good read, but only if you like non sequitors that make little sense until later on when things about them are revealed.
