I love the art style and the plot. The only problem I have with it is the slightly racist undertones. The only two people of color are the villains and minor side character. The woc is seen at mean. The boy is seen as a player. And the best friend is also a person of color who is helplessly nerdy  who Sabrina saves by being her friend. Other than that it’s great.
