A charming, romantic, bittersweet graphic novel about two queer black women who start as friends in the 1960s and quickly learn that they are in love with each other. Faced with a world that won't approve of them, they are separated and are apart for 50 years....until they aren't.

This is such a beautiful and hopeful little book with really great art and a love story to tell that spans decades and persists in spite of everything. I devoured it. This edition also includes bonus content that you don't get in the original, so that's cool too.
