A beautiful coming of age story about Juliet a young lesbian who wants to find who she is. This story follows her during the summer where she discovers the POC queer community, herself and love. I really really liked it

The novel was amazing, but the graphic novel adaptation does not benefit the original story.

The original version of this book is one of my all-time favorites. When I saw that this graphic novel version existed I was especially pleased. I did feel that some of the plot points were rushed compared to the regular print edition. Still, the illustrations were lovingly done, and I loved falling in love with Juliet’s growth all over again.
