About the author

As a woman who suffers from depression and social anxiety, I’ve made it my mission to candidly share my experiences with the hopes of helping others dealing with the same. This extends into my fiction work, where I pen tales about woeful women trying their best, with a surrealist, magical touch. Inspired by surrealist authors like Haruki Murakami, Sayaka Murata, and Lemony Snicket, my stories are dark and humorous with a hint…well, a bunch…of absurdity.

The plot is heating up!! I'm really looking forward to seeing how it's going to develop from this point on. This volume felt too short, but in a good way, I was having so much fun and then it was over. I hope we won't have to wait long for new issues.

I don't love all the story choices, but I absolutely love getting to see original Frankie and Ghoulia again.

Cute wrap-up, and they included some of the one-off comics as well.

Fun!!! Still hard to get used to Frankie being a girl lol, I mainly am interested in G3 despite growing up on G1, but this was super cute. I love that Frankie's design for the dance was the same as her Stitched in Style doll, and she and Johnny were super cute together! Wish we saw more of Lagoona though, she feels like she's being excluded from the story despite being one of the main ghouls since the beginning of the line. Give my girl some time in the spotlight!

The drama is a little over the top but I do enjoy the conspiracy plots, and I love that apparently the other series will continue those plots?? Big focus on Cleo's relationship with Ghoulia is always appreciated too because their friendship is soooo sweet. The art is also beautiful, can't wait to dive into the other series!

This arc was interesting, and the last issues have by far been the best. Good for teen audiences

I love these comics so much! The art is gorgeous and the nostalgia on-point. I hope they will make collected volumes for all the Monster High comic series because I want them all!!!!
