This... Was something. . .

The overall storyline was pretty solid, though I felt it was oddly tangential at times.
Like two pages from the end, it feels like we are given a clue into Lisa, but we are at the end, and it's not going to go anywhere.

Upon some sleuthing on good reads, I do see there is a second volume. But it is still frustrating to feel like you're constantly missing context for things...

The art could be considered whimsical, and I loved the use of watercolors throughout. However, it did feel increasingly jarring to have all of the townspeople to be drawn in a more caricaturistic art style when the kids are drawn to look "normal."

Content warning for this book. It does contain depictions of nudity and sexual scenes with underage individuals.
I was able to pass over the scenes with nudity mostly. Even though they brought some discomfort, it was nothing compared to the discomfort I felt near the end of the book; while not graphic, it left me feeling gross and with a bad taste in my mouth that tainted every part of this book enjoyed.
