very much enjoyed this!! i felt like i was watching a tv show with how well the pacing and art moved, the shift from different times in their life, and the descriptions of the adventures

hopeful inspiring lighthearted

this was soooo cute 

it’s got decent length for a children’s book while also keeping the dialogue and action simple and easy to follow too

i love the casual queer rep in here and once again the art is stunningggg i can never hype katie o’neal up enough for all her work

Loveable characters: Yes

loooooved this in every possible way

the art felt like a warm hug, down to the color pallet and the character creation and even the way the paper looked. the character designs and creatures didn’t just look good but they were interesting and diverse too - even in such a short bit of book. i feel like i could dive into looking at every bit of every panel and never get bored. 

and the storyline was soft and cozy and comforting, i loved our mc embracing their talent and the lines of “Just because something comes easily to you does not mean it has no value. You find it effortless because you love it, and that is why it is your gift.” really gotttt me

anyways 10/10 would recommend and read again

This was messy as hell and I loved the shit out of it. The art style and coloring is absolutely gorgeous, and I laughed out loud a couple times while reading. I enjoyed that while there was a lot of conflict and arguments that went on, the fast pace of the book meant that it didn't feel too overwhelming. It felt very realistic and relatable type of drama. While everything wasn't perfect in the end, some things were open to the opportunity of continuing to get better, and some relationships just drifted apart completely. I feel like that's a highly reasonable thing to happen in college relationships. 

Basically, I love some messy lesbians making bad choices in college. That's the time to do that. 

Also! Loved the rep of Lou using a mobility aid, and the use of the labels of lesbian and dyke frequently. I don't see that often and love love loooooved it<33

Thanks to NetGalley and Oni Press for the ARC:)
