The coloring was gorgeous and I liked the concept. however, none of the characters were super likeable. I wanted to like them but they all acted weird and like jerks to the people they are supposedly friends with. The worst part was that I could not tell the difference between characters. I cannot count on my hands how many times I thought it was one character saying something when it turned out to be another.
this is most notable when one of the girlsis caught sleeping with a the boys basketball coach- i could not tell which one it was, thinking it was their girls basketball coach and was so confused for a few pages
The coloring was a slight detriment in this way- no way to tell who someone is based of hair, skin, clothing color, etc. It was so hard to keep track of the story due to this.
