I really enjoyed the first half. It took time to establish the world and set the mood.
Unfortunately, the ending felt like reading a brief summary of the events. I wanted it to slow down.

While there is no sexual assault on page, nor is it explicitly stated, it is a major theme of the story.anemonima's review against another edition

There is this one series on tiktok, which is all about the shit that happens in small towns in the US and people get away with it (i will add the tiktok tag of the creator next time I see them) and this is kinda it.
The graphic novel looked beautiful, but I did find myself not really caring sometimes. However, it was still just so great, but I do not know if I can really explain it, just read it.
Notes:
Fuck the popcorn boy.
We love 90's and 80's settings for complete silence from police and government.
Curfew is a very weird reasoning behind not wanting to report a weird deer person thing.
I really get Ms. Kadet, it is natural to want you students to do well, but sometimes you forget something that prevents them and you end up hurting them.
The cemetary thing about bodies just falling into the abyss. It's so great.
What do you mean your grandpa just dug out an illegal entrance to the mine from his house?????
Of course women are punished for feeling happy, of course, nothing terrible on such a scale never happens to men.
The water thing is so cool.
The greek myth is so cool. (you can really see that i am just astonished by ideas in this story)
I cannot begin how angry I am about the men in the village. It is just a lot, okay?
I cannot blame the witch. She was angry and she was hurt and she did the only thing she could think of and in the end it brought something better, even tho she hurt people while trying to help.

The twist is heartbreaking, but I gasped as all the pieces clicked into place. Even though it is a fantastical story, it is incredibly REAL.
I loved this so much I'm almost incoherent. Go read it!
