I enjoyed this book a lot, however not quite as much as I hoped. It was entertaining, but a tad too long in my opinion. I found that the plot was dragging at times.
Nonetheless, I truly loved the characters (they all have my heart), their stories, and Mackenzi Lee's writing. I loved the themes that were tackled and I think it was very well done.
I'll definitely pick up [b:The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy|37880094|The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy (Montague Siblings, #2)|Mackenzi Lee|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1522625323s/37880094.jpg|56809455] in the future.

The first five issues of the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina were interesting, creepy and really, really dark. To this day, I think I hadn't read something like that before, and I liked this experience.
The art style isn’t what I liked the most, but it didn’t diminished my interest for the story. I enjoyed reading each issue, except the third one, that bored me.
The story is interesting, compelling, and the plot-twist at the end of the fifth issue solely makes me want to continue reading it, though I’m not sure I will. We’ll see.
Having seen the Netflix tv-show, there are quite a lot of differences, but they didn’t bothered me. Quite the opposite: it was really interesting to see these changes (one being "too much", the others softer, even though perfectly dark when it needs to be) and I liked both sides.
Also, I liked seeing characters from Riverdale in this one. I only know them from the tv-show and I was quite surprised to learn that both Veronica and Betty were witches, but that was an interesting twist as well.
I have to say that the format I choose to read this story isn’t the best. I was on the kindle app on my laptop, and the writing is way too small for me... even with the zoom at its maximum.
Nonetheless, if you’ve liked the tv-show, like this creepy, dark universe and you’re curious to see the story told on a graphic novel, a little bit differently, I would recommend it!

It was very short, but sad, brutal, haunting. A beautifully written short story, captivating, horrifying but powerful.
