This graphic novel covers some of the real events and issues the author went through in middle school. At times I cackled, and at others I was infuriated. It tackles issues such as middle school, friendships, racism, and xenophobia.

I loved this graphic novel. Based on the author's own life but details were changed so fictionalized. Give to fans of Raina and similar graphic novels. Excited to read the sequel.
