ssdgm91's review against another edition

dark fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot

This book is good but it's disturbing and will probably give you nightmares and start to convince you you're  cursed.

4.0

Truly a scary, gory book! This book had me all tensed up as I was reading it and had to take breaks bc it was so unsettling. Really liked it but didn't like how some characters seemingly learned plot details that were important from thin air. Also had weird pacing.

WOWWW this is my first time reading a full book of Junji Ito’s work, and I’m so glad I finally got around to it. completely understand the hype—his work is both beautiful and horrifying, often at the same time ! on one hand, I never expected to get jumpscared by the flip of a page lol ! on the other hand, I would love to find prints of some of these panels to display in my home because they’re just that stunning ! devoured this in a few days because I was so absorbed into the plot, and will DEFINITELY be looking into his other works !
