This was seriously the cutest thing I've read in a long time.
This follows Garlic, who is incredibly anxious, who is tasked with going up to a mysterious castle to confront a vampire by her fruit and veggie friends.
This is a graphic novel and the illustrations were absolutely lovely. At some point I'm going to have to see if I can read it with the full color rather than in the black and white due to it being on kindle, but I feel like I didn't miss a ton with the black and white like I have in the past with other stories. The story itself was so cute and pure and a perfect read for autumn and if you're having a rough day.
I loved all of the characters, even the mean ones. They all had such distinctive personalities and their interactions were all lovely.
Definitely one I plan on picking up again in the future.
