This is for the super hero and haters alike! Even though Nubia is a super, she’s also just a teenage girl and in that is she incredibly relatable.

whatisjordyreading's review

i won't give this book a star rating (not yet anyway). it's illustrated beautifully but the content.......whew. it's triggering. this book should come w/ a trigger warning or a content warning-- something!
this book's content hits too close to home for me to enjoy it. art style & colours are gorgeous tho.
