Moonstruck, Vol. 3: Troubled Waters by Grace Ellis

dark emotional tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Sadly I didn't like this volume nearly as much as the first two.
The toxic relationships are getting, if anything, more toxic, without any apparent criticism of them in the text. And I don't love that one of the characters who has been mostly friendly/decent in the past all of a sudden tells Julie she needs to grow up? What?
It also seemed like this volume was sort of filler/setup for the next one. I'll probably continue with the series in hopes that it gets better since I love the art and worldbuilding so much, but this was a disappointing volume for me.
