Okay I loved this one. It was colorful and lively, with characters you really root for. It has sweet and sad moments, and also laugh out loud moments. I would so happily read more with these characters!

This was a quick, lighthearted read. I enjoyed the drawings, the insight into the character’s feelings, and the connection between the two main characters, as well as the theme: BE YOURSELF AND DO NOT FEEL GUILTY.
