Molly Knox Ostertag is very quickly becoming my all-time favorite graphic novelist and The Deep Dark is yet another reason why. The characters were well-written and relatable, and the artwork was absolutely beautiful. I especially loved the creative choices that framed certain emotional moments of the narrative. The story was engaging and I definitely came close to crying a couple of times. Overall just an amazing read!
