I really enjoyed this sequel! It had good messaging around friendships and how it's okay when your friends from one group don't necessarily get along with friends from another group. The plot also was more complex that the first one, instead focusing on an overall crime/mystery that our friend pair helps solve.

Well written story with adventure, mystery and some big twists. All about bullies and friends and learning how to fit into different friend groups. Excited to see what else this author will create for these characters!

This was such a great graphic novel! We follow Jamila and Shirley as they navigate school, new friendships, and after school activities. Jamila is getting more into basketball, and even joins an after school league. There she meets a new girl, Seena, and the two become fast friends. Shirley is a detective that is currently helping her client, Eva, because another student, Chuck, is blackmailing her and demanding four hundred dollars or else. Shirley and Jamila devise a plan to break into Chuck's house and steal all of the blackmail information that he has on Eva and the other kids at their school. Will they be able to pull of their plan? Or will the two get caught and get in trouble? You'll have to read this to find out!
I really liked this graphic novel. I thought that it brought up a lot of great discussions about friendships and how you can be friends with lots of different people. I also thought that it addressed bullying and how you can handle it very nicely as well.
