Unfamiliar is such a cute graphic novel! I previously saw Haley Newsome’s work on Tapas and really enjoyed this compilation. The art conveys spookiness and slice-of-life problems at the same time. My favorite characters were Sun and Babs; I can’t wait to see how their journeys continue! I want to learn more about Sun's curse and how she got it. 

Newsome has designed a world with unique mythology and yet characters still need to deal with everyday events like shopping at the local Hex-Mart. I like how Newsome shows the emotions of her characters through the irises of their eyes or familiars. This is a delightfully spooky and sweet graphic novel! I’m excited to read more of Haley Newsome’s work! 

Thank you to Haley Newsome, Andrews McMeel Publishing, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
