A review by bookscomics
John, Dear by Laura Lannes

4.0

When life turns into a horrible waking nightmare. A woman loses her mother and soon after finds herself in a romantic relationship with a man named John. Starts off great but after a while the relationship turns kinda bad, kinda toxic. Probably triggered by that and her mother's death (tons of stress and anxiety), the woman develops a weird disease where holes appear all over her body. At one terrible point white worms come out from those holes while she takes a hot bath.

She wakes up in the middle of the night attempting to speak to her mother (who is dead), her relationship with John is nearly nonexistent (they're still together but neither of them is getting anything positive from staying in the relationship), holes spread all over her body to the point where she's basically disappearing, she tries to get better but everything is just worse. Great illustrations, really like how it started off, but ends kind of abruptly. Definitely not an optimistic ending.
