This was an interesting introduction to the series and characters. The art is hauntingly beautiful and so detailed. I have so many questions that I hope get answered in the subsequent volumes!

I’m fascinated by this world and these characters. I have so many questions!! I can’t wait for the next two books. 

I loved the art style. Some of the horror scenes reminded me of Junji Ito which was very cool. I liked the soft feeling the coloring gave—despite the ominous subject.
