Loved this! Where to start, so this graphic novel is about Blue, who's a ghost and Hamal, who can see ghosts. Hamal works at a garden center and loves plants! In the beginning they are both a bit clueless but I think they both knew the other loved them, but Blue was avoiding the subject because he knew it was useless and they couldn't be together.
For a little bit there's a mystery. The ghosts start going into a creepy dark forest all of a sudden but then the cause is discovered and the price to set the balance again seems to be high...only the reaper ships it. The Reaper was totally awesome.
It's cute, only some angst and the rest is so fluffy! In the beginning it seems that Blue and Hamal have an adopted ghost daughter as well! So Blue's job comes to no surprise in the end.
Another awesome thing was that Chloe, the girl that in the start Blue says has a small crush on Hamal, didn't turn out to be evil and all those tropes used to ship the main pairing. She was lovely and made no undue moves.
There was also POC representation (one is obvious, the other isn't) and different body types! It was nice that the characters weren't all white and thin.
Recommended to everybody! I wish that there were more graphic novels like this for all genders, not just male.
