SAPPHIC BOOK BINGO 2022: NEWBIE AUTHOR
I had heard great things about this book, so I was eager to read it. I love that it’s queer and stars a black female astronomer. I love that we eventually dive into Grace’s depression and anxiety because it’s not something that’s usually found in novels.
All that being said, I found the pacing to be really slow-moving. I often found myself putting in a lot of effort to understand what’s going on because my mind would drift off. It just didn’t hold my attention.

Ok, this was cute. I absolutely love Bitty and his adorable pies, anxiety, wits, and queerness.
The pacing was pretty quick, but it’s a graphic novel, so that’s forgiven.
I would have wished for a little more buildup of the relationship between Bitty and Jack (Although I may has suspected something like this would happen, I didn’t really get the impression Jack liked Bitty in that way until the very end).
The culture surrounding hockey was so well done as well as many other characters. I plan on reading the next one in the series!

WOW! Rosen has done it AGAIN! This book was so much fun. It was lovely and gay and honest and nostalgic and perfect and real and amazing.
I was constantly entertained by the plot, and I loved the characters so much. The vast array of lgbtqiap+ diverse characters is refreshing and necessary. Most characters went through some type of character arc, and I was there for it from start to finish. They all just popped off the page, seeming so real. I cared for them.
I loved the complexity of relationships that was explored in this, too. Nothing was ever black and white. They characters went through obstacles and feelings and finding themselves.
Also, if anyone enjoyed this book, I recommend Rosen’s other book “Jack of Hearts and Other Parts”

A fun additional adventure to the fun Netflix TV series. I’m a huge fan of the show, and was excited to see a graphic novel that didn’t necessarily continue the story, but give us more time with the characters.
I thought the characters in the book reflected the ones on screen. This short story didn’t necessarily add to the main TV series story arc, but it had all the elements of a episode - the pressure of expectations, the fight sequence between the horde and the rebellion, the friendship, the banter, the magic.
