4.5

Although the narrative is presented as the densely doodled diary of the main character, the art itself feels like its own character. Absolutely stunning and full of classic monster movie style and tropes, the whole vibe of the book is moody and dark. The story explores flawed people who manage to survive despite having only bad options to choose from.
