'Interesting' subversion of a classic story with snarky humor. Made me chuckle sometimes but also became too repetitive, which I guess is unavoidable considering how the story has to progress. Felt like nothing special overall, but the ending wasn't what I expected and it seemed rather morbidly funny, especially the nice little touch on the last page. Overall, it was just okay...
Graphic: Confinement, Kidnapping, Animal death, and Violence
Minor: Suicidal thoughts and Vomit
