Juliet Takes a Breath: The Graphic Novel by Gabby Rivera
5.0
*ARC provided by Netgalley and the publisher*
This story is so important. It details all of the problems of white feminism, and explores the joy of the queer people of color. Juliet is such an interesting protagonist-and through her we see things like pronouns, gender identity, and sexuality explained in a simple way. Characters like Max and Kiera were so fun to learn more about, and Juliet's relationship with her family was incredibly realistic.
The illustrations were breathtaking. The colors and shading completely transformed this story into something palpable. I highly recommend this graphic novel!
