tangiblereads 's review for:

Uzumaki by Junji Ito
3.0
challenging dark emotional funny mysterious sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No

Uzumaki is a weirdly, horrific, abstract good time. The spirals are everywhere and eye catching and the twisted bodies provide great creep factor that i really enjoyed.  The detail in this book is genius as is all Junji Ito books.  Overall I enjoyed the story, but woundn’t mind a more concrete ending. I do think some of the characters looked like others from Tomie.
