I really enjoy the author's comics on Instagram, but the art style in this book didn't work for me. All of the characters are drawn really simply with very few features, so three of the main characters (Emma, Katie, and Michelle) were nearly indistinguishable. It made it difficult to keep track of which character I'm following at any given time. The actual panels were very narrow and the speech bubbles were so small as to almost be unreadable. Maybe if the story had been more interesting I would have pushed through, but I was almost halfway through the book and it felt like nothing had happened.

Loved the style of this, great illustrations, hilarious characters, some very exaggerated concepts that worked great in the format of a graphic novel. Found the ending quite abrupt however, feels like it has a few loose ends
