We love a gay YA graphic novel in June! And all year for that matter, but a cute story and a quick pace are perfect for summer. I didn’t always love our MC, but I get that he was going through a difficult growing period and needed to get past that to be a better, nicer, more mature adult. I absolutely adored the love interest! The plot took a surprising turn that was more dramatic than I anticipated, but still had a nice satisfying ending.
