Juliet Takes a Breath: The Graphic Novel by Gabby Rivera

So first of all, I read the original, purple-covered novel soon after it came out, and I have no idea what, if anything, was adjusted for the reissued YA that came later, which is what most people have read?? I also barely remember the content or the plot. But I think this is so so so so good just on its own, whether you know the source text or not. I love the art--the style, the colors, the storytelling--and it's just such a good depiction of how frustrating even the best white women are, and there are such amazing family relationships, and even if a lot of Harlowe and even the other characters are people I would probably not vibe with IRL, they feel so real and wonderful, and the whole thing is just so good!
