I think this book provided fantastic commentary on how society treats similar people differently based solely on race. The story is captivating, and grapples with difficult subjects including sexual harassment, white male entitlement and privilege, police brutality, and school shootings. When I first read this, I thought it was a little dark for teenage readers, before realizing that it's dark because it's mirroring actual teenage experience in the present day. School shootings, racism, and police brutality are all topics that many kids, specifically black kids, have to learn about at far too young an age, just to keep themselves safe. It made me remember how when I graduated high school, it was partially a sigh of relief for my parents to know I had made it out of school without a shooting at my own school. Difficult but necessary topics covered in a beautifully designed comic that was also fun and lighthearted at times made for an amazing read.

Not only is the story powerful, but the art is so vibrant and wonderful. It's just a lot different than a lot of the graphic novels I've been reading lately. Juts an overall delight.
