Stunning art (Cannot stress enough how gorgeous!) but composition and design made it tough to follow at certain points.
Speech bubble order was not always clear, feel like I couldn't find the right panel pacing, and both girls look so similar that I confused them for a solid third of the book. 
All technical critques though, the actual story was a poignant one that I'm grateful exists. Shed a few tears.
