i finished it in less than an hour! very intriguing book. i’m super curious to find out what happens next. please note: this book is more of the setup for the story. it WILL leave off on a cliffhanger. i was dumb and didn’t have the next volume on hand so i’m stuck in suspense until i can get it lol.

realistic depiction of abuse. the art is gorgeous. panels are focused on disturbing facial expressions & dark scenes creating a tense & deeply horrifying atmosphere. i read the whole story in one sitting and cried about 7 times
