I’ve been wanting to read this since I saw the cover. I was so excited when I saw it in my local library. Instant grab. The illustrations are absolutely amazing. The attention to details. The way the curls are in the hair, the different body types, the clothes, all the small little details made this book for me. The book follows a group of 4 friends. Each has their own short story and the last story is them coming together.  I’m the end I felt like I wanted more. I know these are very short stories/ graphic novel but I feel like the story line for a couple of the friends could have been more in depth. While I really enjoyed the artwork, there were a few pages with just art that I feel could have been used to expand on the storyline.  Overall I liked the book.
