So this might seem trivial, but I’m taking off half a star because it seemed like Henry lost his southern accent about halfway through. (I only noticed it because I live in South Carolina and I work in retail, so I hear a lot of the ‘southern drawl’.)

The art style, horror movie aspect, and romance between Cade and Henry are my favorite things about Northranger. That kiss scene was just so smooth! I’m not a big horror movie person, but I’ll admit I got swept up in the boys’ love for them. Their relationships flowed very well and the story had the right amount of opposition to it for what this story is.

Again, the art style is one of my favorite elements. The use of soft, curved lines reminds me a bit of Check, Please! - the hockey graphic novel series that’s also queer. BUT I like the warmer color scheme and using white and black around the scene blocks to indicate day or night. Very clever!

So, Northranger is a cute queer romance with darker vibes! Glad I checked it out!
