2.0

A short, cute graphic novel that has all the important stuff (good writing, cute art and an interesting world) but failed to truly engage me completely. The plot was just not engaging enough and the characters barely got any development.

Grace's story of self discovery is definitely the highlight of the story, with an emotional coming out scene that tugged at my heartstrings. My rating of 2 stars is definitely owed to the indifference I felt for the rest of the book. 

In the end, there's nothing truly appalling with this so maybe other people will find more joy in it than I did!
