Great continuation! This volume was creepier than the first, and the story is getting a lot more interesting.

Considering it took me a day to read... I’d say that’s pretty unputdownable!! Lol I am loving this series soooo much! Furthering the rotten onion theory of peeling back the layers on something nasty. But I love onions! 10/10 terrible metaphor!

Trigger warnings: homophobia, violence, blood, gun violence, murder, ableism, grief, death of a parent (in the past), hate crime

Okay, so here's the thing: I really like the keys and the kids and the whole concept of this story. But. So much of this volume was tied up in homophobia and a literal hate crime against one of the only queer characters in the story that I struggled to enjoy this one. That being said, I would die for Bode.

The book is very much twisted with plot

Being able to open your mind and take away your fears is something I’m sure everyone has thought of doing. But, in this volume you really can. A key that opens your mind so you can take away horrible memories, cram for an exam without needing to study and helping you forget is the key feature. With the head key you can see where the novel was going in regards to Zack and his evil plans but still! It’s incredibly written! And the artwork is sensational.

I'm not even sure how I picked these, up, but they are fantastic. An excellently drawn blend of horror and paranormal with great character development and an amazing family dynamic thrown in, they are well written and a great read. I will add the caveat that they're not for everyone; the gore and horror are enough that I'm sparing in my recommendations, as they aren't for the faint of heart.

Ilustraciones 10/10 y la historia a penas empieza *W*
