This story was a delight to explore, and ND Stevenson's art and storytelling is fun and unique. Nimoma and Ballister's friendship truly carry this story, and seeing their relationship grow is lovely. They're both funny and witty, but also just very hurt people who learn to find comfort in one another's friendship. The story does end on a bittersweet note, but doesn't leave you without hope either. I only wish there was more to read!

I’ve had my eye on this one for a few years, and a friend recently lent it to me because she loves it. It was fun seeing the way that Nimoma’s chaotic energy helped or overshot Blackhart’s plans, as well as how Blackhart’s supervillain status began and the ways he ran with it. It wasn’t a wow-me book but it was such a fun read!
