I'm honestly not even sure what Nightmare in Savannah was supposed to be about. I did like the diverse cast and 'The Craft' but with faeries gothic vibe. But, the plot and execution was very messy with no real substance. I also wasn't a fan of the art. I wouldn't personally recommend it but I'm sure some will enjoy it. Thank you for the review opportunity. I wish I had it enjoyed it more.

Thank you netgalley for providing me with an arc. Alexa and her friends get drunk in the forest and discover that they're fae who were exchanged with human children at birth. It was a pretty fun read

I loved elements of this, and I particularly loved the more modern, explicitly queer update it provided on The Craft (the original). The art isn't my favorite, stylistically, but it's evocative and expressive enough to have drawn me in despite that. As for the story, it was a bit of a mixed bag: some elements were very fascinating and certainly kept me reading, but as many reviewers have pointed out, the pacing was rushed at times and that made the story pack less of a narrative and emotional punch than it otherwise might have. The ending in particular moved so quickly that emotional moments seemed brushed under the rug, and it felt abrupt. I wish this were a limited series or trilogy.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK!!! I picked it up without reading anything about it, and I was so pleasantly surprised to find it was about fae!!! So much is written about vampires and witches, but this is the first time I've read a story that really embellishes and works with fae-monster lore. Plus it was a queer romance!!! AH it was so good!

First of all, a huge thank to Netgalley and DiamondBook Distributors, (Maverick), for the copy of this graphic novel.
Wow, where to start. This novel gave me such a crazy vibes. It remembered me The Craft movie, which I love. Alexa moved to her grandpa home and met three girls, that immediately became her best friends. After the first night they spent together, Alexa started feeling weird: she has clows, fangs and her eyes had changed the color. Skye, Fae and Chloe have experienced the same, but they don't know how to explain it. So they continue living as always until they find a book about the Fae. The four of them possess great powers, but all great power means a great responsability.
This was a very nice read, I really enjoyed it. As I said, it's very similar to The Craft. The drawings are cool and gave me dark vibes, that I loved.
Also, I didn't understand why Lucas, a guy that studies with Alexa at the same school, was so annoying. It was really creepy. Also, the story about popular mean girls VS the unpopular girl, it's a big cliché. The one thing that saved this novel was the dark magic and the annotations about Fae. I loved the characters, specially the grandpa.
So, if you a huge fan, like me, of The Craft, you will love this novel. If nit, you will love it too.

Alexa moves in with her Grandpa midway through the school year due to her parents. She quickly becomes friends with the school outcasts: Fae, Chloe, and Skye. She also soon finds out that they were all born on the same day and that they are all changelings! What will they do with these newfound fairy powers?

Fairies meets _The Craft_

I saw a lot of similarities between this graphic novel and the movie. I really enjoyed the characters and the pacing of the story. It was a fairly quick read, but it was a good read! Loved the artwork as well.

I'd recommend this book for anyone that's interested in fairies, fantasy, and teenage drama.

Thank you to NetGalley and Diamond Book Distributors for the ARC.

Thanks to the publisher for providing an eARC of Nightmare in Savannah in exchange for an honest review.

I love changelings. I'm obsessed with changelings. I convinced myself I was a changeling in elementary school (and lowkey still might be) so if I see a book about changelings, I read it. Also, queer changelings? I should have been obsessed.

Nightmare in Savannah's biggest (and honestly only) issue is definitely pacing. Everything moves so, so quickly I thought something was wrong with my copy and tried redownloading it in a different format. This should have either been a lot longer or 3ish volumes.

The worst part is, in theory the plot was excellence. In theory I loved this. I finished it yesterday and I'm still mourning what it could have been if given the page space to flourish.

I really wanted to read this book, however the format was not being supported in iPhone and neither kindle. Quite disappointed. I am supposed to give a rating so I am giving it one star. Sincere apologies to the author and publisher, but without having read the book I cannot rate fairly.
Refraining from posting about this book on other sites.

"Nightmare in Savannah" is a graphic novel that belongs to the genre of Urban Fantasy. Thus, it depicts America - as we, as readers, know it - in combination with the coexistence of a Faerie world unknown to the general public.

The story is reminiscent of high school horror movies, as it focuses on four high schoolers and discusses themes such as romance, bullying, revenge, grief, and trauma. On a personal note, I loved the pop culture references, such as to the legendary "Mean Girls" throughout the graphic novel!

Furthermore, I love the art style and color palette of the story! The art style is unique but not overly detailed. Nonetheless, the artist can convey emotions and atmosphere efficiently. I am sure that the sketchy art style will appeal to some readers, while for others, it will not be as appealing. I, however, belong to the former. In my personal opinion, the illustration style adds a unique touch to the story.

I subtract one star from the rating since the story moves - in my personal opinion - too rapidly. I will acknowledge that the pages of this standalone are limited, but the jumps from one scene to the next and the resulting actions and events were too fast for my liking.

Nonetheless, I enjoyed this graphic novel and recommended it to anyone who likes graphic novels, YA, Urban Fantasy, and short reads. I will one hundred percent reread this book during the spooky months!

The plot set up and the friend group in this graphic novel reminded me so much of The Craft and I’m not surprised to see other readers point this out as well. Fae was definitely giving me Nancy vibes. If you like classic teen horror movies this would be perfect to read in the spooky/fall season. There was even a small romance included that I thought was really sweet. I think the edgy art style and dark color palette matched well with the tone of the story too. I will say that the quick pacing in some parts was a little confusing, as if some details had been skipped over, but it didn’t hinder me from keeping up with the plot. The story did have a complete ending but I wouldn’t mind reading a part 2!

I am really happy that i got to read this book. now it’s time for a true review. i enjoyed it, it was a little challenge. but a lot of times i found myself drifting off and i think that the book was very fast paced. at first i didn’t really like the art style but after a while i learned to love it and i now think it’s unique. i liked the idea of the book and if i’m being honest i picked it for the cover. overall i think it’s all about personal taste, you like it or you don’t, so if you like reading the same thing again and again this one is for you. even tho it was predictable i had fun reading this. if the description appeals to you, give it a go! it’s short, quick and likely to get you out of a reading slump!

This was such a fun gothic teen read, reminiscent of The Craft in ways. The art style was interesting, but not personally my cup of tea which made the story format a bit less enjoyable but as the story continued I started to feel like the author was very good at depicting emotions and atmosphere through their art form no matter how much I liked the specific style or not.

I also think the pacing was a bit fast for the story. It's such an excellent idea, but things move too quickly and I think things could have been fleshed out a lot better with more time for the story and the characters to develop.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy!

Was unable to download and read this on my devices for some reason. It also wouldn’t open on my netgalley shelf app

This kinda has teen movie vibes and I'm down with that. It has gothic urban fantasy girls get revenge of mean girls thing and I really liked that. But it was too fast paced in a sense?? I ended up being confused in some parts because things were moving on quite quickly when I still haven't fully understood what was going on in another part. There was a weird love triangle thing going on but then it ended up not being one? The art style was pretty great though and that's one of the things I loved, plus the fairy handbook thing that was interspersed in the pages.

Alexa moves in with her grandfather in Savannah after her parents are arrested. She makes some enemies and a few friends. She and her new friends get drunk in the woods one night and discover that they are changelings, faeries swapped at birth with human babies. They use their powers to get revenge on fellow classmates that made fun of them and bullied them. Will they go too far, and what will it cost them?

Thank you to NetGalley for providing this book for review.
Alexa moves to Savannah to live with her grandpa after her parents are sent to jail. At her new school she encounters the popular bully, Jen. Thankfully a group of outcasts ask her to join their group, and this is where Alexa's life changes forever.
A story filled with teen drama, a hint of romance and a lot of magic, Nightmare in Savannah sets a gothic, fun vibe for the reader.
This was a pretty cool little story. I liked the format of there being pages from the fairy hunter's journal spread throughout the main story. I would happily read this if it were flushed out into a full novel.
The drawing style was really funky and fun with a limited but suitable colour pallette.
I found the story to be quite reminiscent of The Craft, but with fairies. Which is great because I love The Craft.
A fun little read, maybe best enjoyed in spooky season.

Thank you for the book in exchange for an honest review!

The art style is so unique and fun!! I really like it!
i like the characters and the interactions between them all. Alexa is well done and the art does shut a great job at showcasing the mood of every character and every scene. i love the twistedness and the mystery/magic surrounding it as well.

Really interesting fantasy with thrills, told in visual format. I was interested in the cover art and concept and was not disappointed.

Nightmare in Savannah is a gothic story about a teen girl named Alexa who moves in with her grandfather after her parents get themselves into legal trouble. She makes some new friends and after a night of spilling the truth about each of their pasts they come to a startling realization - they've become Fairies.

I'll be honest, I was drawn to this book because of the cover and the "southern gothic" vibe it gave off. I was not entirely disappointed. The sketchy art style was unique and the color pallet used suited the atmosphere of the story almost perfectly.

My only real gripe is how quick this book seemed to move. Of course, I love a fast-paced read, but this one seemed a little too fast. There were moments when I was genuinely confused as to what was happening or where the characters were (not to mention a few moments when I couldn't tell the difference between characters due to the ever-changing colors used for them).

The story itself was very reminiscent of a classic teen horror movie that you would watch on Halloween with your friends that are too scared to watch a slasher movie. In fact, I dare say this would make a pretty good movie.

The inclusion of two separate love interests for Alexa left me a little dazed. Her male love interest is given a flat personality - he's a football player who is apparently not like other football players. They interact at various points in the story, but there's never any indication that he would be a suitable love interest, which is why I don't see this as a love triangle.

It was refreshing to see a sapphic teen couple, but again, I didn't feel like there was all that much build-up to their relationship and the ending of the book. I would have loved to see more interactions between the two of them to make me root for them.

I don’t read many graphic novels, but I really enjoyed this one! I loved the art style, the colors, and the story line. I honestly wish it was a little bit longer, but that’s just because I wanted more of it.
