Minx.
This was fine. I appreciate that the authors tried to address issues of environmentalism and ecoterrorism within a graphic novel for tween girls. But like a couple of other Minx titles, I felt like they tried to do too much for the restrictions of the publication. Crushes on an almost family member, friendship with an "enemy," and domestic violence/alcoholism are all touched on, but I wanted more from the story. The ending felt like a cop-out to me.
But yay for setting it in the NW!
