A perfectly accurate adaption of the original novella. A good read to introduce the source material to younger readers who may be put off by the 'antiquated' language of the original. A fast read, and I enjoyed the art of Daniel Ferren. A bit simple and perhaps too fast for a tense mystery, but still fun.
Moderate: Addiction, Body horror, Death, Drug abuse, Drug use, Physical abuse, Suicidal thoughts, Suicide, Violence, and Murder
Minor: Medical content, Toxic friendship, and Injury/Injury detail
