5.0

Love, Misha is a gorgeously illustrated graphic novel that follows nonbinary teen Misha and their mom as they try to escape the spirit realm after taking a very wrong turn on an already painful road trip. The story holds a beautiful balance between peril and gentleness, pain and acceptance. Moving through an eerie and beautiful world, characters show their flaws, goals, and feelings in a way that feels genuine and relatable.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. This book was such a delight to read.
