Summary

Do you hate social gatherings? Dodge cameras? Enjoy staying up just a little too late at night? You might have more in common with your local cryptid than you think. Enter the world of Cryptid Club, and take a look inside the adventures of elusive creatures ranging from Mothman to the Loch Ness Monster. This series celebrates the unique qualities that make cryptids so desperately sought after by mankind (to no avail). After all, it's what makes us different and beautiful.

She recommends it because...

"It's an adorable, fun, and quick read about socially awkward cryptids. In a four-panel style, this comic collection follows various cryptids as they navigate day-to-day situations in which they develop friendships with each other. It made me smile seeing how these cryptids faced utterly unique but very relatable everyday challenges. It was quite an enjoyable read."

Who might enjoy it?
