Ah, young love! By turns sweet and dramatic, this graphic novel encompasses all of the angst, warmth, and bewilderment of experiencing all types of love - romantic, familial, and companionable - as a middle grader. - Courtney Yee, Changing Hands Bookshop An excellent addition to the gallery of tween/teen domestic titles like Telgemeier's Drama, Chmakova's Berrybrook Middle Schools Series, and the romance oriented Baby Sitter's Club....Definitely going on my list for tween graphic novel readers' advisory for tweens looking for read-a-likes for the titles above. - Chloe St. Claire, Multnomah County Library, Portland OR The PERFECT book for middle grade students! The artwork is beautiful and the story is masterful. This book fluidly covers so many different instances of love to shape what love can mean for anyone. It also briefly goes into the topic of boundaries and unwanted touch which is extremely important for our youth to understand. - Kathleen Daniels, Librarian, University of South Florida A fun read with gorgeous art on every page. Stunning to look at with a good core message about female friendship. - Jacey Anderson, Rediscovered Bookshop A great book for anyone who wants a middle grade novel about navigating complex relationships (of all types - platonic, romantic, familial, and so on) as well as anyone who wants to read a book with a strong cast of female characters. I feel like this would be good for fans of Raina Telgemeier's Drama or Svetlana Chmakova's Berrybrook Middle School series. -- Ash, Netgalley
