So, this was it. My first graphic novel. And I kind of loved it? The art style of it was particularly pretty and I’ve liked the representation. The premise of the story was so promising too, though it lacked a teeny tiny bit in execution because it wanted too much. So many topics are crammed in there and they hardly get thoroughly delivered but it’s fine, because as a teenager this still would’ve been enough for me to feel empowered and good and connected to the story. It won’t be my last graphic novel!
