I love this series! There’s enough content that pushes the story along with investigations but the true star here is the ongoing storyline where they are trying to figure out what Ellie got herself into. There are also hints about what happened to Ichabod and how it might be still happening to others. Fantastic artwork and overall story. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

Meredith Moriarty has such a gift for making me sit down and fly through her world. Ellie and Ichabod's relationship is something I can't stop thinking about. This series makes me so happy, the characters are relatable and likable, the art is beautiful and everything is sprinkled in magic. I can not wait to learn more about Ichabod's history and Ellies future. I am counting down the days until Volume Three.

I was so excited to see I was given another arc for Third Shift Society thanks to Wattpad and Net Galley! I was wondering where the story with Ellie, Ichabod, and Alice would go. I loved how we just got right into it without extra fluff. I’m glad we got more of the background on Ichabod, where he came from (or lack of knowledge where he came from), and how his name came to be. Also loved seeing a new character Maris come to help with the little Alice problem as well as more mythology entering the story with the void, the triple goddess, and smaller creatures like imps. The slow burn (or maybe I’m hoping there’s a slow burn) is KILLING me with Ichabod and Ellie. Especially with the small cuddling at the end after a long night fighting corpses.

Now my new questions are what happened to Alice’s daughter? Why is Alice showing up as a young girl? What will the void do to help whatever her cause may be? What’re the demons trying to do instead? Why do they have to destroy the nodes? What did Oberon say to Ichabod? What happened to Ichabod and why did he rise from the dead? Where does Ellie really fit into all of this? Though I know I could get answers from webtoon today, I want to wait for the third book to see where the story takes us next!

It was fun to be back with Ichabod and Ellie, I love the art style of this series, and I can't wait to read more!

What? Volume 2 exceeds the expectations.....and guess what, there will be a volume 3..

This book continues the super fun and exciting story line from the Volume 1. Action intensifies and more thing are revealed.

Must read and now wait begins for Vol3!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Meredith Moriarty for providing me with a complimentary digital ARC for Third Shift Society Volume Two coming out October 29, 2024. The honest opinions expressed in this review are my own.

I haven’t read volume 1, but I was really excited to receive this. I love Halloween graphic novels and this one definitely didn’t disappoint. I loved the graphics! I thought it was really clean and easy to follow the story. I thought the plot was really fun and spooky. There was something good character development. I loved Ichabod and Ellie’s characters. I definitely want to check out more volumes!

I would recommend this graphic novel to anyone who enjoys spooky classic stories!

This was wholesome. I loved their relationship and I feel having that type of characters nowadays works better than just having one lead. Ellie is the best, I love how she is determine to get things don’t even if she is not even sure if she is the right person for the job. I liked how in this volume, we are starting a small gang by adding another character to Ellie and Ichabod. Also the awkward attraction out there and putting a love triangle is making this series chef kisses. I would say this reads more YA, but even as an adult is pretty entertaining.

When I tell you this was a major step up from the first one, I'm telling you I already really liked V1, so V2 had me so hooked! I'm super invested in Ickabod's story, and the relationship growth between him and Ellie is adorable. Plus the action is entertaining, the storyline is growing more complex, and the side characters make excellent additions to the team and the story. I'm really looking forward to the next one!

I cannot explain how happy I was to see the second volume nor how quickly I consumed it! The spooky, paranormal vibe was fully present, and the 'spooky' characters are so personable and fun.
Our favorite duo and friends return, and the story right where the first left off, so we continue to see how their story unfolds. I loved learning more about Icabod, though there is still so much to answer! Ellie and her powers are more explored in this, and we see the two delve into paranormal mysteries.
The next can't come quickly enough!

"Oh. Well, it's not like my corpse is going to get up and wander off. eheheh.."

Ichabod and his paranormal friends are back. They are ready to chew bubblegum and kick some ass. And they are all out of bubblegum.

This one was a lot darker and way more adventurous than the first. Ellie is finally making a name for herself and coming into her powers which is really exciting. As the story grows, I'm becoming more excited to see how this all plays out.

Third Shift Society is a fantastic series and one I can't wait to continue. I'll now be signing all of my paychecks over to Webtoon Comics.

Gah! I love this webtoon. Ichabod and Ellie are at it again, solving paranormal mysteries. This volume was a rollercoaster for sure. I loved reading about the growth Ellie went through and the confidence she gained in herself after how volume 1 left off. Also, me thinks I saw some sparks flying between our favorite pumpkin head detective and his new partner (perhaps during a dance in a haunted theater!) If you want the know the tea happening between the two, along with figuring out what Oberon and Titania are planning, run don’t walk to your favorite bookseller and grab a copy!

Thank you to Wattpad Webtoon Book Group and NetGalley for the ARC copy of this book!

A great continuation of Volume One, I really enjoyed the bond growing between Ellie and Ichabod along with gaining some backstory to Ichabods...condition. While some questions were answered, I enjoy that there is still plenty of mystery regarding the pumpkin head and antagonists trying to capture them. The art is still gorgeous and lends a darker tone that helps the suspenseful moments in the novel.

Meredith Moriarty's cozy fantasy-horror mystery book finally gives us more backstory and intrigue about the main characters, Ellie and Ichabod. I remain reminded of a more cutesy Hack/Slash as the story continues, with a monster of the week story that connects to the larger story arc of the volume, and I still don't hate it :P

The Scooby gang in the Third Shift Society also expands their ranks in this volume, adding a new witch friend to the fold. I appreciate that though it's stated from her introduction that she's an old flame of Ichabod's, Moriarty chooses to not pit the two women (the witch, Maris, and Ellie) against each other for Ichabod's affections. Love triangles is a worn trope right now, and I guess so is the will they/won't they of Ichabod/Ellie, but it's also not front and center so it makes it much more palatable... I'm actually reminded of the early relationship of Agents Fox and Mulder on The X-Files. Ellie and Ichabod have that same slow burn.

But what's most interesting is the history behind Ichabod and what he is and how he came to be. Moriarty drip feeds just enough intrigue to keep you reading but not frustrated. Volume Two of course ends on a cliff-hanger though, and I am already looking forward to Volume Three. I also love that though this isn't written for children, it's so far not inappropriate enough for a YA reader. My niece is almost ten and loved the first volume! She also loves how cute the art is haha

Third Shift Society is the perfect cozy urban fantasy for autumn-loving folks :)

A wonderful continuation to a fun overarching storyline! I’m grateful there was a brief recap at the beginning of the webtoon it was nice to remember exactly where we left off on such a good cliffhanger!

I love the continued development of Ichabod and Ellie’s relationship as well as more in depth explanation of his backstory. The artwork was absolutely beautiful and so detailed, it made the webtoon so immersive! I love how seamless each chapter flows and how the constant action propels the book and the storyline forward without being confusing.

Thank you to the Publisher and NetGalley for invitation to read and review this ARC. All opinions are my own.

Thank you SO MUCH for the chance to read volume two of this graphic novel series!

Once again, I greatly enjoyed the art style, and I LOVED Ellie and Ichabod! As well as all the side characters that showed up. I’m so incredibly interested to see where the plot goes… That ending was SOMETHING!

I like having things to try and figure out, and there’s a few in this one that I’m trying to puzzle through - but it’s keeping me so interested!

Magic, mystery, and working for a paranormal investigative agency! Picking up where the first book left off Ellie is now working at a paranormal investigative agency. She is still learning how to use her psychic powers and working with a paranormal detective with the head of a Jack-O-Lantern sure is fun. Ellie's life is completely changed, she went from being on the verge of eviction to now fighting monsters. With dark forces still out there and Ellie and Ichabod's relationship still being new, can they find a way to work together and stop the sinister demons before it's too late. This was a fun continuation of the first book and I can't wait to see where the rest of this series and how Ichabod and Ellie's partnership grows. The artwork is really well done and the world that was created was so fun to explore. I love how Ellie is getting stronger and how Ichabod is opening up to her more. It's a unique and fun series that I would definitely recommend!

*Thanks Netgalley and Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group | WEBTOON Unscrolled for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review*

I think you could show a picture of her with Ichabod on Tumblr and really get a lot of hits from a specific group of people. This is like a mix of Ninth House/Shadow Hunters/Raven Cycle but with Halloween as the main theme and the 2nd vol is strong.

Thank you NetGalley and WEBTOON Unscrolled for the arc copy of this book.

This is the second volume of Third Shift Society. It starts up right where the first left off with a small recap.

We see both ‘monster of the week’ type chapters and progression in the overarching story arc. Again, it’s fast paced and chock full of action.

My favorite part is that we get more information about what’s going on with Ellie and Ichabod. Plus, there’s backstory! I like the easter eggs in one of the back story panels. I smiled as I recognized familiar images.

It was a fun book.

Thank you again NetGalley and WEBTOON Unscrolled for the opportunity to read this book.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an advanced copy!! I loved the first one and I loved this one as well. A combination of action, horror, and mystery with a tad bit of romance. The art like always is top notch and the characters are fun.

My ‘mistake’ with volume 2 of THIRD SHIFT SOCIETY was the same as with volume 1. I intended to savor the story, reading it in small doses, but the compelling characters, intricate plot, and stunning art by Meredith Moriarty drew me in. The opportunity to read volume 2 early was a true joy, leaving me as a very happy Katie this weekend!

This volume featured the same gorgeous art as pumpkin head Icabod and pigtailed Elle, new characters and monsters, our villains are back, and lots of magic and fighting. I can’t wait to read it again in book format and see the art on the pages so vividly!

I was excited about how the storyline progressed. I like that we don’t get every moment of every single day of what they are doing. It works well for this series. I like how the characters are starting to trust each other, become friends, and turn into their own Scooby Squad. I especially like that we learned more about Icabod in this book! I can’t wait to find out even more. His backstory is so intriguing.

I don’t know if it was a good thing to let my excitement and passion take over and read this in a day because now I have to wait until October for the real thing, but it's worth it to be back in the world of THIRD SHIFT SOCIETY!

Thanks, Wattpad WEBTOON Unscrolled and Netgalley, for the ARC!

THIRD SHIFT SOCIETY VOLUME 2 is out on 10/29.
