whoischels 's review for:

The Low, Low Woods by Carmen Maria Machado
4.0
mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Spooky and beautiful. Wonderful artwork with really fantastic feminist, mystic worldbuilding going on. My only complaint is that the story relies a little too heavily on thoughts and voiceover for a graphic novel, in my opinion. The relationship between the two main characters is warm and intense, with believable conflict and resolution.
