Wow wow wee wa. What a gorgeous art style.
And that story, wow. I kinda feel silly for not realizing that this was an adaptation of a standard novel until after I read it. Oops. Anyway, I loved Juliet’s story. I loved all the beautiful queer feminist bullshit, and the people of this book. I’m sure the full novel is even better, but this condensed story still flowed really well :)

as a puerto rican lesbian from the bronx, i definitely have a soft spot for this story.
the art is SO gorgeous, but since this is an adaptation, i do feel like i was missing a bit of context. i want to sit with these characters more and will definitely be reading the novel at some point!

I received an eARC courtesy of BOOMBox! & NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
Stunning and epic. I think with as much as the original has reached teens, this can only serve to reach even more.
For Libraries: Whether you do the graphic or the original, this is a book that you need in your collection to serve your teens.

este libro tiene cositas chulas y cositas que me badtripiaron.
cosas chulas:
mira que bueno leer de ser cuir, de heartbreaks que se recuperan con ayuda de la comunidad, y chuleria boricua. tambien el portrayal de como es cierta gente de portland esta on point.
cosas con las que me fui en la mala:
-dos cabrones typos :'yo no vinO a matar a nadie" y 'perniR" PANA. mira no.
- el apellido palante/titi wepa ( :S )
- en la libreria de multnomah no hay ni un libro de lolita lebron. el research en esta parte del libro, pues flakeo.
2.5
