THIS WAS ADORABLE AND PERFECT. I can’t even articulate any thoughts to write a formal review detailing why you should pick this up but the main message of this graphic novel is TO BE WHO YOU ARE unapologetically - and so here I am, a messy human being who I am.


REASONS YOU SHOULD READ CHEER UP

1) Anti social, grumpy, cynical main girl who is a lesbian and she is hilarious

2) Main girls mum is the literal best. Very eccentric, has a Rory-Lorelei relationship vibe with her daughter. Her mother is really COOL and accepting

3) Tran girl love interest who is BEAUTIFUL and a people pleaser learning to break that barrier. This pairing is opposites attract and I love how they balance each other out.

4) Cheerleading and LGBTQ+ do I need to say more?

5. Annie’s prom look is the best thing I have ever seen in my life, I’m in love with her,

6) You’ll fly through this one because it’s so damn cute and funny.

Sweet coming of age story. Great real moments of growth for a lot of characters, and wonderful nuanced queer and trans representation.

I received this book from the publisher/Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.


I am soooo soooo delighted that I got the chance to read this book early (it is now March) because oh boy this was just SO CUTE and so wonderfully written. I am going to try and write a review, but bear with me as I just have so much feelings!

I will just do a what I like/what I wasn’t always a fan of, because I have been trying for 20 minutes to get something typed. Haha.

This book was absolutely delightful! The character development was great, and I loved the representation and message of this graphic novel. This is the type of graphic novel that I want to see become more popular in the industry.
