I read this first volume so quickly I already feel the need to read it again, and honestly I'm still a little in awe that it exists. LGBT characters whose identities are supported with no-questions-asked acceptance and friendship are desperately needed by our community, and the featured characters here also happen to be cute and charismatic monsters. The best type of characters all around!

Every detail of this work felt genuine and heartfelt, and I enjoyed that the humor involved was silly and childlike without being obnoxious. I'm pre-ordering the second volume immediately and suggest that others do the same so we'll be able to enjoy plenty of Moonstruck adventures in the years to come.

From a writing perspective I didn't enjoy this comic, as I tend to dislike reading media I can't manage to immediately grasp onto and understand. Since I really wanted to give this work a chance I attempted to let that feeling go and appreciate it, with moderate success. 

Something about Sinclair really appealed to me, I have no clue what was happening in his world or what any of it meant but I adored the scenes of him flying around with the wings he's both emotionally and literally attached to. I probably will revisit this comic later on, and hopefully with a better recognition of the themes it was meant to carry, but I found being pulled into this strange urban fantasy to be rewarding either way.

I can absolutely understand why people didn't like this comic, yet I was personally very fond of the mysterious and bittersweet impression that carried throughout.

I spent a majority of my time as a child absorbing stories that stayed with me, played with me, and haunted me far into adulthood. Often times I was only able to access or understand these stories in pieces, leaving me with more questions than answers and an insatiable creative curiosity. One Week In the Library perfectly embodies that feeling whether or not it intended to, and I relished in welcoming back the nostalgia it invoked. 

Since my enjoyment was almost completely due to personal factors I can accept why it isn't shared, but I will cherish this story and the immeasurable joy I felt upon reading Pinocchio's inclusion regardless.

Dalrymple's art is gorgeous and creepily charming, but I felt some chapters continued to a point of redundancy and repeated the same ideas while leaving other ones underdeveloped. Regardless of what I disliked, I still feel that the book is worth reading to appreciate his style of storytelling.
