Super cute and fun graphic novel, lots of magic and a mysterious plot line. I loved the world-building and the art style was lovely.
I’m looking forward to finding out more of Camille’s past and her powers. And it’s apparently a sapphic poly romance? Can’t wait to see more of that!

This is such a cute graphic novel! I really love the artstyle and am intrigued to see how the story continues. I love how naturally diversity is weaved into the story. Definitely a good book for anyone who loves witches and queer story lines!

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for gifting me a copy of this book!

It is the story of Camille who is about to do a ritual the Severin family has been doing for ages. She has lost her family in a fire incident and lives with her cousin Avalin and her aunt who does not treat her very well. When the ritual fails, she takes some time for herself and figure out who she is and what she wants.
This first book was great! The drawings were gorgeous and the story cute. The new acquaintances she made and the mystery around the demon following her makes me want to continue reading!
Her familiar Toben is also the cutest, I love him!! I enjoyed seeing her trying to discover more about herself and her powers.

Muted: Volume 1 is a great introduction to a new comic series. The art is stunning, full of saturated colors and play on shadow. I liked the setting in New Orleans with competing covens, each specializing in a different type of magic. I am curious to see how the Severin ended up so isolated when it seems like most of the covens have a thriving society, plenty of connection between the families. This seems like it will be a major theme for the series. I am hoping we will get more on Aunt Silvia and the Leroux family too - I'm very interested on Camille's aunt who quietly defies Matriarch Athalie. I will say the ultimate summoning of the flower demon felt off in tone from the rest of the graphic novel, but I think it's intentionally askew from Camille's expectations. It definitely has me curious for more. I have been loving the Webtoon adaptations into graphic novel format, and Muted is no exception. I can't wait to see where this story goes!

Thank you netgally for letting me read this book in exchange for an honest review.

I honestly had no idea what this story was about, only that it was a found family with a sapphic poly romance. I was kinda surprised by the book (maybe I should have read the blurb more closely lol) but I really enjoyed it!
At the start I didn’t really understand what was going on but I understood all the characters relatively fast. I loved getting to know Camille’s backstory and how she became how she is (her aunt is a b*tch). It was very nice to see her bond with her cousin and it made me sad to see her step away from her because she was scared her aunt would figure out her secret.

I really liked to see Camille’s change in perspective after getting away from her aunt. From blaming all the other family’s for the deaths of her mom and twin to developing a little crush on one of the girls. I can’t wait to see more of them in the next part

I also can’t wait to see her connect more to her other power. I loved getting to see her in the other family and can’t imagine how different her life would have been if she could have gone there instead of her aunt Athalie.

I really can’t wait for the next part!

Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for providing me a free e-arc of this graphic novel.

Wow! I absolutely loved the start of this story, and I can't wait until volume 2 to see where it goes! All of the characters were interesting, the plot is great, I love that the characters have familiars, and the illustrations were absolutely gorgeous!

If you like a witchy tale with a blooming sapphic romance, definitely give this a try!

*Muted: Volume 1* by Mirande Mundt is everything I could hope for in a graphic novel. Reminiscent of *Crumbs* by Danie Stirling, it weaves a story so enchanting that it’s nearly impossible to put into words. The magic within these pages is undeniable—captivating, immersive, and utterly spellbinding. This book left me eager for more, deeply invested in the story and characters. I can't wait for the next volume, and without a doubt, this novel is going straight to my must-own collection.

Muted Volume 1 is a beautifully illustrated graphic novel/webtoon. I found myself devouring it and the art was breathtaking.

The story follows a witch on her path to self-discovery as she meets other witches her age and starts to unravel her traumatic past. This is such a strong start to a graphic novel series. I can't wait to read more. I loved the introduction to all the characters and can't wait to see more. It's definitely one I will be picking up!

Thank you to the publisher for providing an advance copy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This graphic novel checked all my boxes. It’s a fast paced story about witches in New Orleans that is a fresh take on that genre. The magic systems are intriguing and fun without being complicated, the plot is interesting and fast paced, and the blossoming romance is sweet and exciting. The main character Camille goes through a lot of growth in the first volume and I’m looking forward to seeing where the story takes her as she learns more about herself and becomes more independent.

This graphic novel does include a lot of trauma that the min character experienced in her childhood that occurs both on and off page so I highly recommend checking trigger warnings before diving in.

Thank you NetGalley & Ten Speed Press for the ARC!

A super cute graphic novel about a witch from 2 opposing families. The concept was cute and the art was stunning, but the story felt a bit jumbled and not super cohesive. A lot of potential though so would definitely read future volumes!

I thought this book was so very well done. The artwork is absolutely beautiful. The story line was very engaging and the diverse representation was everything. I look forward to reading more as the series progresses!

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read Muted: Volume 1. This was an extremely solid beginning to a graphic novel series and I wish I could read the next part right now! No spoiler themes: witches, found family, representation (LGBTQIA+, disability), coming of age, and finding your own path. Really enjoyed this and will absolutely be reading the next volumes as they are released. 4 stars

Muted is a sapphic and polyamorous story which offers a deep dive into witch families, their unique powers, and the complex magical politics that emerge when they intersect!
Muted authentically portrays LGBTQ+ lives, disability, trauma recovery, grief, and healing through supportive relationships.
Highly recommend!

I love the illustrations in this book. The artist did a great job. If you love graphic novels I definitely recommend reading this.

love a revenge story, this graphic novel was gripping i kept turning the pages to know the ending
so i found the ghost woman kinda cool, I mean she was here to get a revenge for the living girl she used to be, and for that, slay !
*keep in mind that my opinion is entirely based on my own experience as a kid who was bullied at school.*

thank you net galley for the copy

First off I wanted to say thank you for this ARC.

I remember when this was coming out on Webtoon. It was one of my favorites. It is for everyone of course not. But it's got witchy stuff, found family and more. So I'm here for it.

Will definitely be picking up this graphic novel when it releases.

Muted opens on the night our main character Camille Severin is supposed to summon a demon to further her family's legacy. The ritual doesn't quite go as planned, which leads to Camille discovering secrets of her past.

"Prove that you're more than dead weight and play the role that you were born into or be cast down."

I had such an amazing time with this story! We start off with a high stakes demon summoning ritual and some interesting family dynamics, which quickly leads Camille to delve further into her past and the traumatic event that has thus far defined her life. The story is very engaging and features a rich, diverse cast of characters.

Mundt's art style and use of colour is gorgeous and pairs so well with the story. They are not afraid to let their art speak for itself instead of belabouring a point. The gothic style with its stained glass window imagery makes my heart sing. Along with this every witch family seems to have their own visual identity.

"I'm...tired of being afraid all the time. I want to have control back...of my life, my dreams, and my power."

Muted shows us how diversity is done well. Characters feel like they have an actual personality besides their gender, race, sexual or other identities. Also a major shout out to featuring a disabled character saving someone instead of being saved themselves. That little detail means so much.

I would recommend Muted to anyone who loves fantasy stories featuring witches. It explores family dynamics, trauma, and coming of age themes in a gentle way. Alongside a rich cast and beautiful art.

This was an interesting read. I'm happy to have been chosen for this ARC and to have discovered this new author.

It was a fast-paced graphic novel with gorgeous drawings. The cliché of witches from different families cohabitating in the Bayou of New Orleans didn't feel recycled. The author leaned into it and created a nice ambiance. Some plot twists were somewhat predictable, but still added a layer of depth to the story and the FMC. Bonus points for a cute sapphic relationship in the making.

My only negative comment for this book was about the writing. It wasn't bad per se, but it wasn't great either. Plus, a lot of typos remained, which is more on the editor's side and I hope it will be corrected for the final copy.

Thank you NetGalley and Ten Speed Graphics for the ARC.

I was drawn to this graphic novel / WEBTOON but the graphics and I am glad I jumped on it because I really enjoyed the story so far. I immediately ran to WebToons to continue reading the story because I had to know what came next. If you are looking for a witchy, family secrets, sapphic, family is what you make it story then look no further. This is beautiful to read online but will make a beautiful addition to your physical collection too.

Thank you to NetGalley and WEBTOON for the arc!

This unravelled webtoon follows Camille as she learns what it means to be a with in a fictional version of Louisiana. The book itself covers the first almost 30 chapters of the webtoon and as always, the format is a great transition from online to book form.
Personally I would have loved some more general exposition into the story, as it just immediately jumps right into the narrative, but the writing picks up as the characters are able to flesh out and explore both their areas and themselves.
I do appreciate the trigger warnings before the book starts, I think that is something webtoon has always been good about making sure their authors do, and I would like other publishers to try something like that moving forward.
