Very intense and gory but I couldn’t stop reading. My only complaint is that it was sometimes difficult to tell the order of the panels.

I love the illustration, the story is alright and overall I got more spooked than I tend to from things like this. I liked it.

Love Erica, very Lisbeth Salander, but I kept looking to see when the book was going to be over so I could put it down. I’m not much of a slasher person so this was clearly just not for me. I loved the prologue though into the big spiky Something Is Killing the Children. Lol that was the best part for me. Too bad.
