I love Nena & Nestor so much. this was sad, beautiful, funny, and dark. I adore Caña's writing so much.

the repetitive lines & constant spelling mistakes are just a little annoying but the being constantly beaten over the head with the fatphobia & body shaming? fuck right the fuck off. thank you.

CW: gore, violence, blood, death, cancer, child abuse (sexual, physical, emotional: some implied, others on page), fatphobia, body shaming, villains can't be villains if they're not fat & ugly & some form of 'not normal looking' of course. and we gotta be reminded of it CONSTANTLY.

3.5

cw: blood, murder, death, kidnapping, unhelpful law enforcement, gaslighting, cancer, medical content, violence, casual ableism

this one was pretty good & kept my attention very well. a couple unanswered questions that big me, but nothing story-breaking overall. a bit repetitious at times, but not that much. will definitely read more from scissom in the future!
