Due is a new to me author, which really says something about the state of horror (and my own efforts if truth be told) because she is not new to the genre, yet I am only now hearing about her.
This was fine. I didn’t think it did enough work at being unsettling, and it definitely felt like the storyboard for the never-made movie it was sourced from. I do understand, however, that this is meant for a young audience, and they could very well enjoy it, especially those in circumstances similar to the main character.

The back of the book mentioned this was originally going to be a movie. I sincerely hope it does well enough as a graphic novel that they make it into a feature-length film because the story is good.

I am a lover of all graphic novels, this one did not disappoint. The artist did a great job portraying the story, the characters felt real, and the story was unique.
