Chronically online lesbians navigate sexuality and romance. Well-drawn and well-paced, only hampered by Sejic's sometimes unnatural dialogue.

Bullet Review:
This was recommended, oddly enough, by my local comic bookstore guy - and he recommended it to me, not for the hot lesbian bondage sex but for the insane humor and narrative.
You know what? He hit the nail on the head - this book is hilarious and charming, with the most adorable narrative voice I've read in a long while. I've never read any erotic comics before, certainly no lesbian BDSM, but this was absolutely charming and adorable!
"Fifty Shades", eat your heart out!
Side note: did you notice the offhand remark to Twilight?! 10 points if you do!
Reread:
Still as hilarious as the first time. Can't wait to hop onto Vol 2 finally!

Really sweet and compelling romance that just so happens to blossom in a BDSM context, and the BDSM context is approached very genuinely, and is a nice introduction to the actual world of BDSM versus just being a titillating set piece. There is a genuine earnestness and vulnerability in the writing that could be a turn-off for some, but suits the themes well, and the introspective explorations of self-doubt and anxiety that are prevalent throughout. I do think the author is very explicit rather than implicit about everything regarding emotions and intimacy. Usually that’s too much? Like you don’t want to be hit over the head too much with “this-is-exactly-how-we-felt” in words. And repeated more than once! Usually that’s a big writerly no-no. But, I think it works well for this particular story. It ties into the theme of ultimate honesty and trust. And just saying the things you don’t want to just say. The personifications of shame, the alternate versions of conversations, they also tie into that nicely. It makes sense, and isn’t annoying like you’d expect.

I had a great time with this story. It's so much sweeter than you would ever expect. The main two are awkward and new to their relationship. The art is lovely. The spicy scenes were fantastic. Watching them figure out things together is lovely and I definitely plan on continuing with the next volume.
