hopeful sad fast-paced

The colours of the ghosts are so pretty. I loved the idea of gardening needing balance because it grows life - I would never have expected something like that. But overall the comics seem to be concatenated and doesn't flow, and the characters aren't developed so I felt shallow towards them. But the ideas are inspired and the artwork is nice!

The art is beautiful and the character interactions were cute. However, the plot was lacking and hard to follow at times.

Queers, ghosts and gardening, what more can you ask for! 

This is a ridiculously sweet and lovely tale about a ghost who falls for a gardener. Things go awry when a reaper shows up, but thankfully it all works out in the end. 

While not a true spoiler the way that this comic handles the trope of <Spoiler>  "bury your gays" and turns it on its head is a delight .

light and cute. i think it’s a good story and could’ve been longer and gone into more detail. it’s a good standalone but i’d love if it was revisited later for sequels or something (maybe a cartoon 👀) because the groundwork has been laid and it leaves you wanting more. The characters are great and overall i think keezy young killed it.
