Jokes aside, she just like me fr. I'll be on the lookout for Awad's next book, this was great. It was funny and sweet and very informative about Australian culture. Which was surprising. I know more about diaspora Palestinians & Arabs than I did about Australians before reading this! I love the parallels to classic English romance novels, even if I haven't read them I GET it. Awad is a true talent!

Good lesson for kids but not good enough. Like it's a big deal to talk about racism but in the end

A joke I'll always make is a parent, a parent of COLOR apologizing for something is so unrealistic... Says more about my life than the book... But sis keeping the Jamaican flag on her at all times? I C O N . That bumped my rating up.

Two petty lil nitpicky things I will mention though: A ghost has glasses? You telling me I die and I still have bad vision? And a year passes at the end and their hair is still the same. One issue I have with comics so far is I don't really feel the passage of time, but changing their hair really would've helped with that.
