Fantastic fast read that was really entertaining. Loved every page. Darker than I normally pick but left me totally satisfied. The book itself is beautiful with the illustrations done in what appears to be charcoal. Some of the drawings are indeed a little bit risqué but nothing any normal late teen couldn't handle. Highly recommend.

I thought I was going to really enjoy this book, but I had a lot of trouble following the story.

Didn’t really understand this graphic novel and found it rather hard to follow the plot at times.

3 1/2 stars. Intriguing, but a tad uneven. Striking artwork.

I loved the illustrations, but felt the story never quite went anywhere. A very interesting final act was rushed and never quite realized.
