A beautiful book! Universal themes and a really touching story. So relatable for teens and those healing their inner teenager!
This was excellent! The depiction of high school friendships, dramas, and personal challenges and growth was so well done. Things aren’t always fully resolved in the end but Searle does a great job showing that sometimes just making small brave changes is more important than big heroic gestures. I love the zines the characters write which are interspersed throughout as well. Content note for self-harm and disordered eating.
