Laura Dean, você é muito tóxica, fia! É só estalar os dedos que Freddy (Frederica) faz o que Laura deseja: desmarca compromisso com amigos, esquece combinados, vai a festas que não quer ir e tudo isso por migalhas da namorada, que ainda a trai várias vezes. Gostei de como ela prioriza a amizade no final (a melhor amiga precisou fazer um abortou e ela deu assistência) e FINALMENTE terminou com Laura. Gostei das cores da HQ (rosa, preto, cinza e branco) e que ela escreveu um e-mail para uma completa estranha conselheira, confidenciando esses sentimentos com relação à namorada que não consegue dizer a ninguém, e no final obteve a resposta. Freddy amadureceu e foi fofa a cena final ela se divertindo no baile com os amigos, enquanto Laura era coroada rainha do baile."

I absolutely loved this slice of life graphic novel. A cute story about love and friendship. And also it was SUPER queer and I was so here for it!

This was really interesting, and I like the perspective on break ups and friendships. Some of the characters were a little hard to separate from one another. And I think some of the plotlines could’ve done with flashing out slightly more. However, I did like the agony advice and the way the story deals with breakups and lesbian relationships.

This book is so dang pretty it earns four stars on that alone!! I’m impressed with the topics covered in this book, and I think the local mystic having a prediction is a fun touch. Definitely think this could have spent longer on a few parts but it was nice to read regardless!!

There's a piece of advice in the book that I resonate with:
It's also true that you can break up with someone you still love. Because those two things are not distinct territories: love and not loving anymore

I read this really quickly, as I do with most graphic novels, so it's hard to say exactly how I felt. But the art was beautiful and the dialogue was realistic which is always a plus. I think I just like my explicit writing which is hard to get from a graphic novel

This book was... fine. It didn't leave any lasting impression. In fact, it was so forgettable, I can't think of a single thing to say about it except that the art was pretty.
