This was a beautifully illustrated story about a girl who finds another girl in the forest as they get closer and find out more about each other. I didn't know anything about this graphic novel going in and it was a wonderful surprise to find out exactly what was going on, even if it was quite strange at times.
The characters were endearing and it was especially exciting when the story turned creepy! The illustrations really evoked the atmosphere of darkness, the unknown, and certain shocking moments that were very effective.
I'd highly recommend this graphic novel purely because of the art and, if you enjoy strange horror stories, then this is definitely for you.
