I received this book from LetterBetter/the publisher in exchange of an honest review.

This was both confusing and oodles of fun! For most the story is about Jughead at Camp Pickens finding out that the bug juice (and a different one then you might be thinking of) is gone + wondering where the other counsellors are. Well, we get some information what happened to those between the parts of Jughead. There are two parts, Betty and Ronnie. But since they just happen randomly without a warning + the art style is different it was a bit confusing. Still, I really enjoyed these stories (they were delightful and spooky) and also enjoyed seeing Jughead rally the kids to get bug juice which let to a battle and some surprises. Camp Pickens sounds like a camp to avoid, haha. Possessed kids, scary guys, and big bugs.

To be honest I wasn’t in love with the Art style and the short stories in an already short graphic novel made it kind of a miss for me.
