Devoured in one sitting. Didn’t have a clue what it was about going in, and by the end I wanted to purchase it for my own shelf. It’s a really emotional take on toxic relationships and self-esteem. I loved the ending and really just wish it was a bit longer so we could see Freddy be happy for a bit longer ♥️

A really cute and gay graphic novel!! The artstyle is amazing and it’s a really fun read! It also was about how relationships can be toxic and messy. Freddy (mc) has to figure out and come to terms with her toxic relationship with LD. All the characters are really interesting. I think it would have been great to know more backstory of Laura Dean, but considering the format and how long the graphic novel already is, I can see how that just didn’t fit in there anymore.

A solid book!! A great representation of overcoming a toxic relationship and being your true author self. Doesn't shy away from difficult issues, like manipulative partners or other teen issues. A really good book over all.

Absolutely stunning. Best graphic novel I had the fortune to encounter in 2024. Masterly combined the struggles of coming-of-age, queer identity, and queer relationships as well as debated issues in the community itself. The art elevates the story so much. I weep for how effectively simple the lines and shading are.
