The kind of book that built a universe I'll spend forever thinking about and trying to imagine myself in. Beautiful illustrations and beautiful portrayal of both platonic and romantic queer love. Made my heart feel full and even though I read the digital version I'm so excited to get my physical copy in the mail. Can't recommend it enough.

Feels like a movie. Extra points for no men. Negative points for the art not being clear. It's very beautiful, but it should've had more color. Maybe that's the artist's style but many moments were hard to differentiate between things like characters and lighting because the color scheme kinda melds together.
