This book was waaay different than I thought it was going to be based on the cover, and I didn’t read anything about it before reading it, which I think led to an interesting surprise. It definitely gave me some Miyazaki horror vibes, but I still enjoyed it. The art was also a bit different than I expected it to be, but I still liked it.
