There is some non-sexual nudity (except for one panel that is sexual, but you don’t really see anything)linakats20's review

Content warnings at the bottom. :)
While a super quick read, I think about it a lot still. I am very particular about the kinds of graphic novels, manga, and comic books I read because, much like audiobooks and their narrators, I can’t read books with pictures if I don’t like the art. The art in this one is very good.
Davene’s story resonated the most with me, as someone who has dealt with depression. Cookie didn’t handle that very well, so I hope Davene is able to get the help she needs. I loved the relationships between all the girls, and Cookie’s story is absolutely heartbreaking.
Reading this, especially between The Magnus Archives seasons, was a pleasant reprieve.
Rating: 5
Would I recommend? Yes, especially if you enjoy contemporary fiction, bright colors, and compelling and real stories.
