My first foray into an "adult" graphic novel! Graphic novels aren't my preferred format - I like words and I struggle with pictures being the base of the story over written narrative - but I wanted to read these after enjoying the Netflix show last year. It is a bit of a stretch for me, as I also don't read horror much and certainly was disturbed by some scenes, but on the whole, I enjoyed this read and I plan to continue in the series.
