Apparently I'm basically reading my way through all of the graphic novels/comics nominated in the 2022 Goodreads awards, and I'm okay with that. The premise of this one is the goddess of death is fired after a baby is born who is supposed to invent immortality. So, she is sent into the body of Laila Starr, and embarks on a journey learning about mortality and death.

There are some absolutely beautiful illustrations in this. The opening panel of Mumbai--stunning. I loved the color palette used throughout, bringing to life a lot of beautiful landscapes. And also adding a sort of mythological quality to the story itself.

The story reads kind of like a fable, and I think if you like Good Omens, you will definitely enjoy this book. It's got a bit of humor, a bit of philosophical discussion, and a little bit of magic. The art was still my favorite thing about it.
