Through the Woods by E.M. Carroll

why i’m reading horror in december (right before christmas) is a good question, but i really don’t have an answer beyond i love to get scared lol. i’ve heard about this horror graphic novel for a while now and decided to give it a go and really enjoyed it! graphic novels are hard to rate bc while the art is pretty, it doesn’t make up for the lack of exposition/writing that novels give me. the stories themselves were pretty creepy, bc supernatural horror is my fav flavor of horror, and i personally like it when it’s open ended. this is such a quick read that if you’re interested in reading it, i still say go for it—i’m pretty late to the party, so my review shouldn’t matter lol. but in terms of spookiness, it kind of reminded me of over the garden wall, but *creepier* and without any sort of satisfying ending/conclusion. nothing ground breaking, but really creative—it definitely gave me some fresh new horror stories to think about!
