Wanted to re-read the graveyard book... And then this seemed like a fun fresh way to engage with it. Very much the story I know and loved as a child and a fun way to engage with it. Definitely more dark as a graphic novel than as printed text. I enjoy it for sure, though I do think I am attached to how child me imagined these characters looking.

i started reading this almost right after i finished the book. and i wouldn’t recommend it, the graphic novel is pretty faithful to the main source, so i don’t even know if i’m gonna read the 2nd part. nevertheless, it was a great experience, the drawings and the story are amazing. it’s just another way to dive into this wonderful world.
