Fun ride this one was! The Cinderella elements were fun. I called that
Micah would end up with Elliot
from the very beginning, felt obvious to me. I don’t know if I loved how fast boyfriend 100 was found, maybe could have been more “Dash & Lily”. Also would have preferred this been about college kids instead of high schoolers. Overall, queer love, awesome!

I'm sure this is an amazing book for the right person, but not for me. Some scenes felt like they took years to get through. Giant robots were cool, just thought it could have been explored better.

You know… this was fine! There were some fun gasp-worthy moments. And then… it ended! I know there’s more books following different characters, but, we’ll see.

Oh, my heart. Easily the best YA book I've read this year. I regret putting this off as long as I did.

Oh, this is my favorite middle grade series. This one was especially sappy, but that’s okay! What a great addition to any young reader’s library.

This was fine. Not the most insightful graphic memoir I’ve ever read. I think the mixed media elements really messed with the pacing unfortunately.
