My small review I copy pasted from what I wrote (it is not showing up in public comment bc I edited it)
Wouldn't categorize this as horror. hope, rejection and shame, though shame the most tangible and concrete here. I'm not grossed out by the visuals, it did accentuate the frail "unknown feeling/sensation" of reaching out for some kind of warmth and belonging. My heart was out for her.
Not an exceptional read but simple and I like it on the more "minimal" side, enough to be able to collect these sensations and feelings the child grew up with, which you can take from this read.
Last comment on the visuals/character design because I think it was perfect, it did not instigate repulsion and I don't think it could have been the intent either. Very vulnerable visuals, being abandoned, the panels where her life as a newborn extinguished, there is no horror "twist" or abnormal supernatural strength or unease, just a vulnerable life not equipped to deal with being discarded
