When I read volume one of this graphic novel series I was blown away. I absolutely fell in love with the story of a girl finding her way through the foster system. That girl was Paloma and she does make an appearance in volume two, but this time the reader follows Celeste. Celeste lives in a dark world. She is constantly being in harassed in person and online. The group of misfit girls are not going to let her be alone. They are going to help find who’s harassing her and make it stop! This book looks at not only a tight friendship group, but things in families that are sometimes complicated. I still really love this series and can’t wait to see the next book. I’m really interested to read Apple‘s book, because she’s got some interesting hang-ups on relationships. I can’t wait to see what book 3 will be about.
