*I got this book for review*
I don't think book worked as well for me as previous books i hve read. I think book had a nice balance of contempory topics but also so spooky/ fantsay elements. I liked the diversity of the cast and also the art stlye. I don't think the story was as captivating as i was hoping! It was a quick read!!

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
"Don't look down on me just because I'm stuck to your feet!"
A fun mystery with some dark elements thrown in. Nothing too scary but some shadows get devoured.
I enjoyed cynical, serious "can't laugh at cat videos and gotta wear black clothes every day because she's so beyond these plebians" Suee, their detective trio, and the limited color palette of black, red, cream, white, and murky violet. Haeun and Hyunwoo are characters I want to see more of. The queen bee bully is stereotypical and flat, but it's lampshaded.
This book touches subtly on the complicity of watching bullying, how emotionally-vulnerable kids are susceptible to being tricked and used, and how parents never really notice what's going on.
Overall, I'm interested in reading a sequel, and I hope to see Suee become less callous.… (more)
