The sweetest graphic novels and depictions of teens coming out and experiencing Queer joy. HIGHLY recommend. Such a feel good series but they also touch on real life experiences with school bullies, sibling bullying, strained family dynamics, navigating crushes and relationships as Queer couples and teens, coming out to family and friends, self-harm, eating disorders, mental illness, homophobia, transphobia, etc. I think these are just so well done and despite some of the heavy but necessary themes they touch on they always go back to the joy to be found in navigating Queer relationships.

trigger warnings: homophobia, bullying, biphobia, eating disorder, depression and anxiety, OCD triggers, sexual assault

I really don't need to say much. It's too cute for its own good at this point. Hit up webtoons if your stores are out of copies.

I loved this book and this series. I actually ended up seeking out the WEBTOON after I finished this one as it ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. I appreciate this book talking realistically about mental health issues and relationships while still being a hopeful book.
