What will happen to Catherine after she discovers that a demon possesses her?
Catherine is a 20-year-old Irish-American woman who has never skipped Mass, fearing that something terrible might happen if she does. She kept this habit a secret from her boyfriend, Manolo, until one night when she decided to tell him. The following day, Manolo invited her to spend the day with him, and in that moment, she chose to skip Mass for the first time. Later, Catherine discovers that she is possessed by demons who are the princes of Hell. What will she do next?
While the narrative captured my attention with its twists and turns, I found myself disappointed by the conclusion. Throughout the story, there seemed to be an underlying tension that often cast a shadow over both attending Mass and embracing the Faith itself, which left me feeling unsettled (I understand and respect that people have different experiences with their faith). This book also marked my initiation into the world of adult graphic novels, making it a memorable experience.
Catherine, the protagonist, emerges as a deeply layered character, filled with a mix of insecurities and aspirations that make her relatable yet intriguing. In contrast, Manolo lingered in the background, his presence subtle and understated compared to the vibrant dynamics of the other characters.
I would recommend this book to those who appreciate a narrative rich in complexity and depth, eager to explore stories that challenge as much as they engage.
