bookishfoxes 's review for:

The Sad Ghost Club by Lize Meddings
3.25
hopeful lighthearted slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The art is very pretty, however some pages were difficult to read. Sometimes a panel was drawn over two pages, making the middle unreadable. While the anxiety and depression parts are relatable, I still feel like I barely know the main character. I mean, I didn't even know their name until nearly the end. I also have no clue what pronouns they use. I like the concept of them being drawn as ghosts, but it does make it difficult keeping characters apart.

Overall I liked this, but the only reason I'm reading volume 2 is because I already own it. Otherwise I don't think I would have continued this series.
