I loved the nostalga of the 2000s goth/emo culture. There's so many references of the subculture packed into this graphic novel throughout.
Another aspect I thought was amazing was all the important topics that were broached in this coming of age story. For example sexual preators, shitty men, devorce, female friendships, and staying true to who you are. All these heavy topics were presented in an amazing way.
