  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
The pacing feels rushed, and every conflict resolves too easily and neatly for believability. But more importantly, this is a sweet, gentle story, and I genuinely cared about all the characters and wish Frasier had given us more time with them. (Except Jonah. Goodbye, Jonah.)

This is a great story about two friends returning to their friendship... (I wish it was more clear that they had previously been friends)
There is plenty of representation of minority groups in this graphic novel. It's thin, but so much happens to these characters that they are able to really grow and be themselves!

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Here is the thing. I honestly love it.

This book is so dang sweet. It's a sweet little story that is so perfect for fans of things like Fence but make it sapphic. Honestly this is the kind of book I'm going to buy and read over and over again just because it fills me with so much glee. My whole heart is with these characters. Such great representation and story telling in such a short amount of time but it works so well. I would read ten more in this series.
