5.0

New Review: 2023 - Still the same feelings except I liked it even more and bumping it to a 5. The opening is hopeful, the middle crushing, then back to having hope then BAM, awful at the end. A great up and down and I need more.

Old Review 2017: Damn this one is tough as fuck to read. Talk about losing all hope.

To be honest Low is a tough read. Sometimes the water colors and art make it confusing. Sometimes the story sucks out so much hope you feel awful. Sometimes...sometimes...

I dunno sometimes it's just not "enjoyable" to read cause it's real. Because the things happening in here are sickening or fucked up. Or because the "good guys" aren't always good, don't always live, people die for no reason. This is life in a reflection and betrayal is sadly a big part of most people's life. This is no different, and to me is thrilling to read.

This volume ALSO deals with getting to the surface. A happy chapter turns dark quickly and by the end I was left with shock and sadness. Wonderfully put together yet sad as fuck, and I can't say it enough, I felt the hope leaving my mind when reading this.

Saying that this series evokes a lot of emotion from me and can't wait to read the next volume.
