Cute and quick graphic novel that is entertaining whilst including good messages and serious topics like labor conditions in other countries and bullies. There was not a ton of dialogue so it went fast and the art is expressive but simple. The people also look realistic, which is a plus. Good, easy read!

This was beautiful and charming. I loved the art style and the story! How dare something so short give me so many emotions.
For Wednesday of Booktubeathon, I'm reading 3 short books, first of which was In Real Life. I read this whole book without letting go of it, which actually wasn't that much of a feat.
Anda is a gamer girl who just moved to a small town in Arizona. On her first day of school, an Australian gamer named Liza comes in and challenges all the girls in the class to join Coursegold online, a major MMO game, as female characters, and if they kick some ass, they get to join her guild.
Anda then meets Lucy, or "Sarge," who goes on paid missions to kill gold farmers. Anda actually talks to one of the gold farmers and finds out his working conditions. In an attempt to help improve his position, Anda accidently gets him fired.
Afterward, she works with the other gold farmers that worked with him, and eventually the boys go up to their boss and demand better working conditions. And of course, she gets to join that awesome guild.
It was a cute story, and I had no idea that gold farming was even a thing, which really opened my eyes to something new about MMMORPGs.
On top of that, the art was beautiful and sometimes pretty clever.
I LOVE GRAPHIC NOVELS <3

art was pretty cool to look at, however, the plot itself was a bit confusing to follow. how does a group of 10ish players affect the working conditions of another group of ~50 people in a video game with millions of players?
