I'm usually not a big fan of graphic novels but I got assigned this as part of my Advanced Reading class and it was beautiful. Absolutely stunning artwork, loveable and realistic characters, and a big climax towards the end that turned the whole last half of the book into a page-turner. The flashbacks of Mia's past relationship were also adorable. The twists were hard to guess and caught me by surprise but still added to the plot at large. Even though it was around 500 pages, it felt way shorter because of how engaging it was. Easy 5/5, my favorite graphic novel I've read so far.
