The storyline was confusing at times but I enjoyed it immensely. The dream sequences (which was apparently Tiffany trying to talk to the girls??) was a cool addition too. I thought it was just some messed up dreams the girls were all having because of their trauma bonding but making it not just dreams but an addition to the already messy timeline was really cool.
What I didn't vibe with was Mac's treatment of KJ after finding out KJ was a lesbian. They were friends way before Mac found out about KJ or learned about their kiss so I don't understand her reason for pushing KJ or hurting her in that way. There was also several other times were Mac should homophobic/lesbophobic tendencies. This graphic novel should have had trigger warnings at the beginning for things like this because I didn't expect it AT ALL and was very surprised when it happened.
