TW: lesbophobia, religious bigotry, death, death of loved one
A cute love story about how it's never too late to live the life you deserve. The pacing was... a journey for sure and the dialogue had its moments at best, and the story felt very impersonal for something meant to be so touching, but it was a quick and easy read, and one with a sweet message.

Really really wonderful representation - two queer women of color falling in love!! The art was gorgeous, too.
One incredibly special moment was towards the end, (small spoiler)there was an image of a woman with her shirt off (bra on), and she was expressing self-consciousness about the state of her belly and stretch marks from having been pregnant with five children over the course of her life--and those things are very much represented in the image. Besides people I specifically follow on Instagram, this was the first time I had seen this represented in visual media format, and I cannot overstate the emotional impact that had on me. Truly wonderful.
The dialogue was preeeeetty simplistic for my taste - I wished we could get even more layers to the story, it almost moved too fast for me. But did I still love it? Yes. Did I cry during an 88-page fast-paced graphic novel that took me 30 minutes to read? Very much yes.
