This was a compelling read. At 252 pages, I wasn't sure I'd be interested, but instead I couldn't put it down. The art and storytelling has a very "indie" feel to it. If you're looking for an accessible Indie book and like a bit of gore and suspense along with your character development, you might like this book.
Junior High Schoolers are rotten. Everyone knows this, right? This book portrays some of the toughest behavior among the 8th graders, and even the people you root for as being "good" have their complicated moments. The panel layouts are good, the dialogue is peppered with occasional humor. In general, this was an enjoyable break in my reading list.
