Thanks Netgalley and publisher for this graphic novel.

Honestly enjoyed this novel, so easy to read and we got the ultimate Veronika x Persephone ship so happy out 🏳️‍🌈👩‍❤️‍👩

Thank you Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book. The opinions written are completely honest and my own.

The Well is an addictive graffic novel that feels rather relatable for the most part. I'm just glad my bosses were never this troubled, and if they were they kept it for after business hours . I wasn't able to put it down and I have 0 attention span today

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an e copy!

Veronika is tired of her failing rockstar boyfriend and living with her parents, she gets a desk job at a company that makes “energy drinks”
She quickly finds out things at work aren’t as they seem.

Absolutely loveeee veronika’s character! She is trying to get her life together but as we all know, that’s not a simple task. She is shy, charming and just trying her best.

Was honestly nervous when i saw it’s 722pages long but there isn’t a lot of text and the pacing made it fly by! I really love the contrast between the cute animal characters and the darker themes/plot. Really loved the art style but a personal preference is i would have liked it more if it was colors instead of gray scale.


Definitely worth the read if you like graphic novels that combine genres, you get sci-fi, slight horror, mystery, romance and a bit of everything else😂
Loved the lgbtq+ representation <3

3.75☆ rounded up to 4☆

I think that maybe I am too old for this book. It came across as slow well into it. Then again, that could be because I'm closer to my three-quarter life crisis. I can see how this could appeal to a younger crowd. And it did build up nicely. I think I especially liked the end. It is not one I, personally, would read again, but I think younger readers would enjoy it.

The Well wassup such a wild ride. Veronika feels stuck in her life. She has a crappy boyfriend she's been dating since high school, just got a new office job, and moved into her boyfriend's run down apartment while he's on tour. She starts experiencing weird things at her new job office and realizes there's more to this company than anyone knows. From there this becomes a sort of sci fi drama with romance attached and I really enjoyed the ride and the characters.

I received this DRC from NetGalley.

The art in this reminded me of vintage cartoons. It's all in black and white and the elements are rounded and simple. The whole thing is very clear and easy to read. As for the story, I was more interested in the mystery part than the quarter life crisis meandering, but it at least interjected the weird stuff enough to keep my attention. I guess I didn't understand why there needed to be some of that personal drama/ghosting. It was just sad and didn't really add anything. But I did like that the ending added more to the mystery. I'm curious about what the janitor's deal is.

I was a little put off with the number of pages to start, but once I got going, I couldn’t put it down! The characters are simply drawn but really captivating. Their individual unique personalities really work with each other. I thoroughly enjoyed this and would happily read a sequel if one was to happen! Highly recommend if you like animals of indeterminate species, lighthearted spookies, and office mysteries.

Likable and enjoyable characters. Very relatable as well. Easy to keep track of storyline. Some fantasy and (mystery) as well. Art is charming and cute! The last few pages of course was such a cliffhanger!!!!! I want more 😭😭😭

The Well is a charming, slice of life style tale, with well written dialogue, a charming art style and very relatable characters and a sci-fi side (main?) plot about the company they all work for doing nefarious things. I question whether it's a side plot, because it feels like one, but the book takes it's title from here. Honestly, this whole bit always feels like a side track, or a play for humor that doesn't land, and I kind of wish it were lifted from the story all together so we could just spend more time with the characters just living their lives as that's when the book is at it's best.

B plot aside, the low stakes, grounded plotline is more than reason enough to give this a read.

Wonderful art with underwhelming storyline. It started slow but then escalated so quickly towards the end it all felt disjointed.

Veronika is such a great relatable character. she’s not sure where she is heading with her life and just feels stuck. Than we add a helping of sci-fi, creepiness to drag the reader even deeper into the world that she is joining by starting this new job. I enjoyed this book immensely. if you love a creepy story with love a characters make sure to check out this one.

Rating 4.5 stars
