A arte é muito bonita, gostei principalmente das cores escolhidas, são vivas e chamam à atenção. Se fosse a preto e branco a história não teria o mesmo impacto para mim. Gostei muito da história, divertida em algumas partes e com uma grande lição a retirar no final. Só tenho pena que seja de leitura rápida. De uma graphic novel não esperava outra coisa, mas não me importava de passar mais uma tarde a ler este livro (que, deixem-me frisar, é lindo fisicamente)!

This was such a fun read. The story was intriguing, the art was vibrant, and the characters were in the familiar O’Malley style!

I loved this! I loved the style, the main character's conflicts, the themes, etc. It was a very quick read but I felt happier after doing so. It was a refreshing story about a girl and her inner conflicts. At times I laughed at loud. I couldn't stop turning pages to see what ultimately happened and what became of her.

It was fun and a cool story but man the main character remained unlikable to me even in the end. I don't want to be her friend.

4.5? 5? Halp!?! Either way, this was really good. Not that I am surprised of course.

I love Katie and all her dumb decisions. This was a great mix of light and dark, perfect for that late twenties panic that's starting to set in.

This is probably one of the most creative graphic novels I've read that has a dark twist to it! The dark themes work even better with the light-hearted and happy art style the book has. I loved how self-aware our main character was, and how she talked to the narrator throughout the novel; never before have I seen someone create a dynamic like this. Overall this was an amazing read, and something I would recommend all around due to its originality!
