I loved this modern retelling of Twelfth Night set in a high school, which gave me some Heartstopper vibes, honestly! Not only were the characters adorable and well-written, but I really enjoyed the overall colors and art style. It all worked really well together to create an entertaining graphic novel. And the fact that this is going to be a series, adapting Shakespeare into these fun modern formats, I am here for it!

Really, I kept getting flashbacks to She's the Man as well. That movie is also a fun take on the same play, and this book fits well into that feeling. Thoroughly entertained by this, and I can't wait to read the next one in the series.
