This has been on my radar since it came out so when I saw it sitting on the front shelf in the library today, I grabbed it. It didn’t even click at the time that it was Valentine’s today ♥️

A wholesome, emotional and honest look at love on all relationship levels as well as believing in yourself and finding you own personal joy. Loved this graphic novel! Highly recommend, 10/10 🤩

I enjoyed this teen romance set around the celebration of the Lunar New Year, with a nod to Valentine's Day (gone bad). It was interesting to understand more about the traditional dragon dances, and learn a little about the Asian cultures represented in the book. Beautifully illustrated.
