I would highly recommend this book. The art style is really nice and I like the blend of mystery, supernatural, and environmentalist. I found the characters endearing and felt their struggles.
Moderate: Child death
Minor: Toxic relationship

I liked the premise of this book and the folklore of it all. The art was nice, too. But the plot wasn't quite there for me. The ending took a long time and then felt super rushed at the end. Wouldn't necessarily reread it, but I wouldn't be opposed to trying another by O'Connor, for the art, at least

Fun art throughout the graphic novel, and I really enjoyed the plot twist at the end! However, I wish the ending was a bit more fleshed out and we had more explanation for some of what occurred throughout the book. I wish we knew what the heck the forehead thing was - how did it become a source of power? And I felt like the line with Beth was totally steam rolled over in favor of the pipes plot line. Overall, I think it could have been a bit more thought out, but it was an enjoyable way to pass the time nonetheless.

Love the art and concept but not the plot towards the end or how it wrapped up.

Fun environmental thriller with a cryptid plot line - such an odd mixture of things that somehow really works
