Higurashi When They Cry: Abducted by Demons Arc Volume 1 – Ryukishi07:
Life couldn’t be better for Keiichi Maebara. Sure, he’s moved to a sleepy, little town where nothing happens and high school consists of a one-room schoolhouse – but his new friends and fellow students are all cute girls! When he happens upon a story about a grisly local murder, however, his contentment turns to uneasiness as he finds himself drawn into a web of silent intrigue that involves his newfound friends…and threatens his very existence.
I hadn’t ever heard of this manga before so I wasn’t really sure what to expect when started readin it, but I really enjoyed it. It’s set in a mysterious town where a death and a disappearance have happened every year on the same day for the past 5 years. I can’t wait to get to the bottom of this mystery!

Locke & Key Volume 1: Welcome to Lovecraft – Joe Hill
Locke & Key tells of Keyhouse, an unlikely New England mansion, with fantastic doors that transform all who dare to walk through them. Home to a hate-filled and relentless creature that will not rest until it forces open the most terrible door of them all…
So I watched the Netflix series of this and then I heard about the graphic novel from Ashley at Bookishrealm who said the graphic novel was so much better. I saw a copy of volume 1 and had to pick it up. The events in the graphic novel happen in such a different timeline than the Netflix series. I honestly can’t wait to carry on reading the graphic novels.
