50s female serial killer with lots of gore. It’s a great idea but unfortunately, stunning art can’t save everything.

The characters fell flat, no clear motives, no clear personality. The plot pacing felt weird, especially towards the end. It lacks the feminist punch it claims to have. And yes, I know it’s set in the 50s but is the low key racism really necessary?

My favorite part was the exclusive art pieces included after the end. It’s disappointing that the writing didn’t get as excellent of an execution as the art.
