This was a delight to read. It was such a joy to read something so gracefully written and stunningly illustrated about entomophagy!! The nerdiness, self-love, cute queer folks, fully realized characters, intentionally addressed conflict, and delicious recipes made for a perfect graphic novel! The authors also touched so thoughtfully and personally on the intersections of food, cultural identity, racism, and sustainability. Whole-heartedly recommend!
Plus some great body diversity and fat representation!!
