I've been following the author on Instagram for a few years, so I was exited to see her first graphic novel hit the shelves. Her comics were funny, informational, emotional, and you can see a bit of that with this comic. It's fun, it's colorful, it's adventurous. No doubt, it's going to appeal to middle schoolers that like the lighter side of manga and shojo stories. For me, it's a little too simple, the world felt incomplete, and the character dynamics a bit too shakey. I totally get that as an adult reading a graphic novel for tweens it's going to happen, so I don't really want to be too negative on it. There's a good beginning here, so I hope that the history between the races gets a bit more fleshed out since I think it just appeared out of nowhere during the middle of the story.
