Squad is an amazing female empowerment werewolf graphic novel that is not to be missed.
Squad begins with Becca starting at a new high school. Her first day, she meets the most popular girl in school who introduces Becca to her crew. As Becca becomes part of their circle, she learns the cost of being part of the circle.
I really enjoyed plot of Squad because I understand why the Squad does what it does. The illustrations are GORGEOUS. There are few pretty graphic parts so may not want to eat while reading lol. I also love the little romance thrown in because it breaks up a little of the rage.
