I was also really happy to find that as someone who has never read the full Sleepy Hollow story I was able to fully follow the story and graphic novel.
I’m sure there are additional layers to the story that I would gain if I read the original story and then reread this so I might do that at some point but for now I was really happy that I could still understand and appreciate this novel without that

This is a charming graphic novel that brings together three unlikely heroes who are set forth to find answers, discover who they want to be, and protect each other along the way.
This can be read at any time of the year, and I think it will make a great spooky season recommendation.

200 years after the events of Washington Irving's "Legend of Sleepy Hollow," the town celebrates every year...awesome for most, kind of torture for Vicky Van Tassel, who is made to play Katrina in the festival every year. When Izzy Crane moves to town, she senses something strange is happening that the smiling faces of Sleepy Hollow might not realize.
I knew almost nothing about this book going in other than it was queer. I'm gonna be honest, I didn't even know it was based on The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I loved it though! It was so cute and Izzy is such a great character! Also Vicky is an incredible versatile mid-size queen and I love her character design so much!
This was super cute and I enjoyed reading it immensely!

I have spent a lot of this year looking for good queer graphic novels, and this one absolutely fits the bill. This sapphic reimagining of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is adorable and spooky and has a gorgeous art style, fun characters, and an engaging plot. I read it in two sittings. It's a bit slow at the beginning, but by about the 1/3 mark, the story really picks up. I would absolutely recommend Hollow to anyone who enjoys graphic novels, sapphic teen stories with no homophobia, or Halloween.
