I really appreciated the art of this graphic novel! The colors and angularity of it is memorable and adds to the unnerving nature of the tale. It delineates between the two settings of the story very well and gives me this feeling of otherworldliness within our own normal world! On top of the art I appreciated the story. While the characters aren't my favorite in the world I appreciated how real to life they felt for the short amount of time we are given with them. It will be fun to see them all come together in the next book as they all seem to have varying motives that may intersect in unique ways. In addition, Westerfield did a great job of building suspense so I am waiting to see what happens next.  I am so intrigued to see what we learn in the sequel as the ending definitely left me on the edge of the seat.
