A sweet, beautifully drawn, queer read, but kind of a mess plotwise. Also, pretty much the first thing Lelek does is kidnap Sanja, which is never a strong foundation to build any kind of relationship on.

As a frequent reader of teen graphic novels I really liked this book. It had good pacing and enjoyable art. I liked the main characters and the plot was easy to follow.

Minor: Murder, Death, Kidnapping, and Death of parent

The death of a parent and kidnapping of a relative are very minorly displayed. Both are motivations for characters are are not covered in depth.

one of the main characters temporarily dies after someone kills her for her background.

4.75 for 3-4 page layouts that were ambitious but confusing, and a typo. BUT STILL LOVED. This is categorized between MG and YA, but either way it was a delight when it wasn’t breaking my heart.
