This is my first time reading a Junji Ito's book and I really liked it.

I love horror books and the weirdness of these drawings alongside the very twisted plot are really dark and macabre. The fact that we never figure out who is the, actually, the "bad sibling" is my favorite part of the entire book.

I have several of his books in my shelves and I can't wait to read them all.

This is my introduction into Junji Ito's work, which I have been wanting to get on for a long time. This is some grim storytelling with some graphic depictions. It's made up of several short stories, bundled together with an over-arcing plot. The characters are sinister and the narrative is great. Really enjoyed this.
