Well, this was a wild ride.

First of all, I’m going to be that bitch and complain about how awful the texture of these pages were: it felt like I was holding a sheet of SAND. When I wasn’t turning the page, I tried my hardest to touch the least amount of paper as possible because of how irritating the sensation was on my skin.

First off the art in this graphic novel was absolutely stunning! I was mesmerized by detail and colors. I also really enjoyed the story and the creepy, witchy vibes. I highly recommend this short graphic novel for spooky season.

Squeezed one more book in before October ended! This one was just okay for me. I've read some really stellar graphic novels this year, so I've possibly set a high bar. The setting and atmosphere were really nice and I liked the world building. And I liked that I got in one more witchy book for the month!
