I’ve also really been wanting to start this series because I’d heard so many positive and great things about it! After turning the last page of this first volume, I really can’t wait to see where the story is headed! I’m also happy that this delightful manga is getting me out of my reading slump! So after finishing The Promised Neverland, I was feeling so accomplished because this is the first book I’ve finished in a little over a week (which felt like so much longer, if I’m being honest 😭💔💔).

My Thoughts: The Promised Neverland Volume 1 is a promising start to an intriguing manga series! Following a unique cast of characters set in the Grace Field House Orphanage, things are not quite as they seem for Emma, Norman & Ray! With intrigue, mystery, & with both a great cast of characters & equally unique story, this first volume will have you turning the page, wondering what’ll happen next! Good food, clean clothes and the perfect environment to learn-what more could an orphan ask for? One day, though, Emma and Norman uncover the dark truth of the outside world they are forbidden from seeing. And under the care of the woman they refer to as “Mom,” all the kids have enjoyed a comfortable life. But perhaps not everything is as it seems…Įmma, Norman and Ray are the brightest kids at the Grace Field House orphanage. While the daily studying and exams they have to take are tough, their loving caretaker provides them with delicious foods and plenty of playtime.

Summary: Life at Grace Field House has been good for Emma and her fellow orphans.
