I’m really loving graphic novels. Especially the sweet and wholesome ones. This was seriously just adorable. Keltie was so earnest and innocent and she balanced Reagan out well. It was a very quick read, but thoroughly enjoyable.

Despite how short and quick it was, every single character experienced a good amount of growth, and it all felt very natural.

The illustrations, as well, were gorgeous. Honestly, I’m not sure if I’ve ever read a graphic novel that didn’t have gorgeous illustration, but these were truly stunning. The colors, the lines, can you tell I have no idea what I’m talking about? I am not an art person. But I do appreciate pretty things when I see them

I really enjoyed this book, and I can definitely see myself picking up more of Molly Knox Ostertag’s work in the future.
