The second volume is just as good as the first volume was!

I love that we got to learn more about Ichabod's origin story, Alice, and what Oberon and Titania are up to. I thought the crypt was super cool and I love how they solved that problem. I like that we jumped back into the story exactly where we left off in volume 1 but I dislike how this volume ended; mostly because I have to wait so long for volume 3 before I can find out what happens next, ugh.

I started reading this series on Webtoons and absolutely love it! I can't wait until more comes out as it has me chomping at the bit! perfect if you're into paranormal mysteries and stories where normal people see what usually goes unseen. I recommend this series all the time and can't wait to introduce it to my library when I can convince our graphic novel person to do so haha.

The adventures of Ellie and Ichabod continue as they continue their magical pest control business. Ellie will learn more about her powers and about Ichabod's past.

The second volume picks up right where the first left off. Ellie's confrontation with Alice leaves her with a new magical mark that she must figure out. I was interesting to see more of the supernatural characters.

Ellie and Icabod are on another case and this time they're teaming up with a man named Liam to help them this time!

Ellie with her psychic powers and Icabod her detective boss with a pumpkin for a read, well there isn't any mystery that they can solve together!

Ellie and Ichabod are back! Ellie has been training and learning more about her powers while also tracking down who and what Alice is. Then there is Oberon and his strange link with Ichabod. We also learn a bit of Ichabod's past while the pair deals with exploding houses, gobs of skeletons, and cryptic witches. It will be interesting what the duo will face in the next volume!

I've been waiting for this moment for so long! If you remember I read vol. 1 last October and I absolutely loved it! I still adore the art so much.

The first Val ended on a pretty intense cliff hanger, so I'm happy it picked up where it left off. I also appreciated the re-caps cause it has been almost a year. Not going to lie Ichabod is still weirdly attractive lol

It’s really just a direct continuation to vol. 1 so there's not much I can say without fear of accidentally spoiling something. But if you like paranormal shenanigans and lovable characters consider picking this one up! Would make the perfect quick Halloween read!

This sucked me in and kept me reading on!

I have not read the first volume, and even so, this was a spooky storyline that kept me drawn in and reading on to find out what happened next! A unique plot with a variety of interesting and otherworldly characters, this is perfect for anybody who is not afraid of the things that go bump in the night.

Warning, this is SPOOKY!

I really liked it. Lots of action, intrigue and supernatural things going on. Ichabod and Ellie are a great team and I'm loving this story. Lots of twists and turns. Can't wait to read more of this!

I enjoyed this volume a lot more than the first! The first volume was a bit sporadic and I was curious what the plot was besides getting rid of paranormal villainous creatures.
I felt like the plot really picked up in this volume and I was hooked. The art is fantastic, and the plot twists kept me guessing. And we always love a little potential love triangle. 👀

I’m excited to read volume 3 when it comes out! I want to know what happens next.

Netgalley Review

Star Rating: ★★★★☆

Read the description and thought I'd give it a try. It was an interesting read and I can't wait to read more! I like the characters. I like the murder mystery kind of detective style. Merged with the supernatural genre makes this a really great concept. I enjoyed the characters and can't wait to see how they develop further.

Like always though, read it and decide for yourself

Thank you Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group, WEBTOON Unscrolled, and NetGalley for the advanced electronic review copy of this cool, spine-tingling adventure. I read this volume without reading the first one, but thanks to an short overview in the beginning of the story, I feel like I didn’t miss anything and was able to enjoy this story without confusion. The story is easy to follow and is a fun, magic filled adventure with great characters and awesome artwork. I’m definitely reading the first volume in the meantime and can’t wait for the next one to find out what happens next.

Ellie is back, continuing her work with Ichabod. It’s funny when one is jobless, drawing in debt, and on the verge of losing everything, and then fortune shifts. She is determined to become strong enough to make a good partner for Ichabod. And now they have supernatural mysteries to solve. Witches, demons, and ancient monsters come out to play in this second volume.

This is a cozy fantasy mystery that gives more of the story behind Ellie and Ichabod. I was happy to discover that Moriarty didn’t choose to create a love triangle between the new witch Maris and his partner Ellie. It’s clear feelings are starting to develop between Ellie and Ichabod, but it’s done in a tasteful way that doesn’t distract from the storyline. I am so intrigued to learn more about Ichabod in the next installment.

We love a good recap moment to get back into the swing of things. I thought it was a great way to start this second volume as well as to tie-in to the recaps done for each of the regular WEBTOON episodes. And homage to their standard setup.

Secrets and mystery abound for this paranormal investigative duo with fabulous side characters and literary-named antagonists. Meddling demons, lost ghosts, creepy theater halls, missing persons, and booby trapped catacombs. So much for two supernaturally gifted beings to try to figure out and somehow it all pieced together in some way for the Big Bad. Add in learning some background about Ichabod himself, and we have a great second edition to this world. Beautiful art and easy to follow panels are fabulous as well.

Every bit of this second installment was such a delight! I flew through it on a first read through and even read it a second time to give my thoughts time to actually develop behind utter enjoyment.

I am obsessed with this series. I love Ichabod and love getting to know more about his past. Ellie is a firecracker and I love her. I also adore the side characters. The story was interesting. I could not put it down. I cannot wait to read the next one. The illustrations are so beautiful. Thank you to NetGalley and Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group for the arc in exchange for my honest review.

I originally read this on WEBTOON and am so glad it’s getting its own books now! The characters are absolutely adorable and down right lovable. The story is easy to follow while also being interesting and not losing steam

So much fun! I zoomed through this one just like the first. I don't read a lot of web comics or graphic novels, but these are so accessible and really pull you in. The perfect combination of campy and spooky, with a cast of lovable characters who make you want to keep reading.

This is a great continuation of the Third Shift Society story. It picks up right where volume one left off. Volume two gives more detail into the characters, especially Ichabod who we barely got to know in the first volume. The artwork is clean, and fun. Overall this story is a cozy fantasy that is a very enjoyable read. I can't wait to see where it goes next.

I loved this book! It was a great follow-up to Volume 1. This graphic novel was simultaneously engaging, fast paced, and easy to read. Ichabod is a lovely character. I also really liked the final scene in this Volume.

As we continue the story of Ichabod and Ellie, a lot more trouble finds them at nearly every corner. A couple of characters from volume one are a bit more involved and more lore is explained. We get to tag along on their supernatural cases a couple of times. But the main plot is just getting more and more creepy while answers are given… with more questions!

As usual, I love the artwork. And Maris’s outfits… gorgeous! Especially her black and gold cape. The humor in this volume is awesome! I had quite a few laugh-out-loud moments. 

I like the building tension between Ichabod and Ellie. Their relationship is progressing at a good pace and it does not interfere with the main plot of the story.

That ending makes me eager to read volume three!

Thank you for #ThirdShiftSocietyVolumeTwo
