While this didn't necessarily have a cohesive story that ran from start to finish throughout the book, I did enjoy the themes of it and most of the characters. It felt more like reading a recap of an entire school year, and some of the topics were uncomfortable, but important. Being that I'm not the target audience I didn't completely love it, but I look forward to passing it on to someone who might.

Excellent graphic novel. Perfect for starting at a new school or being in the lowest grade on campus. For all of us when we don’t feel like we fit in. I loved this book and I think all ages can relate.
