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.
