Uzumaki: Spiral into Horror, Vol. 1 by Junji Ito

2.0

I've heard a lot about Junji Ito but to be honest, I didn't have super high expectations because I'm not interested in horror manga. After reading the first volume, I found the book to bank more on shock value than anything; the mystery didn't draw me in, and I didn't really care too much about the reason behind the spiral psychosis. I did really like the art style, and I really enjoyed looking at the disturbing bits, but that's about it. I don't plan on reading the rest of the series.
