Quick simple read nothing too special. Not bad at all, quite fun but it didn't stick out to me, I'll try the 2nd volume if that doesn't stick out I might DNF the series.

I give this a 3.75, I think I'm just love the OG Macbeth a bit too much and so I find it hard to give this a 4 like I did for the original play. In saying that I loved the art style and the execution of this as per usual, these Classics as mangas are always a blast!

Usually love horror but this one for some reason was just really boring to me and felt like it just fell flat, really cool concept but for me person It was poorly executed…

Fun read but the pacing was off for me and I'm not a fan of how Millie as a character was presented in this story especially with how she was in the previous 2 books, though the twist as per usual was fun and I still like Freida McFadden's writing. Obviously with this being the last in a trilogy I already cared about the characters so that definitely helped but unfortunately this one fell flat for me.

June is just INSUFFERABLE, and RF Kuang did an amazing job showing us every bit of ickyness there was to witness in this character. This book provoked a lot of thinking and reflecting I LOVED it!

I've been enjoying these manga versions of classic novels, I love the manga art-style chosen, it really brings these characters to life. As someone who enjoys both classic lit and mangas/animes this combination has been a delight.

This is one of those cases where, the concept and execution is great and there's nothing inherently wrong with it but it just plainly wasn't for me. So I give it a 2.5.
