This one hit hard. It accurately portraits mental illness and encourages you to be yourself. This story hides so many important messages. I loved it so much (not that I expected something less).

The message about staying true to yourself and standing up for yourself comes through loud and clear. The story is heavy handed and at times a little over the top. It starts off strong but starts getting messy with character development and character situations. The tone and language does get a little dark and rough.
Came close to not finishing the book

This graphic novel was okay. Not bad, but not a new favorite either.
At times I found it confusing because the story went by quite quickly, but that also makes it a quick and easy read. I feel like alot of age groups could enjoy this type of writing. What confused me the most was how fast the relationships between the characters changed without it seeming like any time had gone by.
What I enjoyed about the book was how unfiltered the dialogue was, it was somewhat shocking at first but not surprising. It being so unfiltered makes it very obvious what it's about and what he wants to portray, but I didn't see that as a bad thing. I also enjoyed that it was illustrated by several people, that way we get to see several artists shine, and it's fun and refreshing to get a new look for each part.
The book definitely gives off a Yungblud vibe, it reinforces alot of the stuff he stands for. I think it has alot of potentional to be a very good story, I haven't read the second one yet so I can't give a review on it as a series.
I want to read the second one aswell! I think he's planning on realeasing a third and final one too.

A great little plot and some great, interesting characters. Really hope YB creates a second as it was very enjoyable.

I was really excited for this and picked it up at comic con. I finally got around to reading it and it did not disappoint. I love the wackiness of it but also the messages embedded within it. Initially I wasn’t sure about the art style but it grew on me quickly and also changed throughout which I also enjoyed. I need to get my black heart tattoo ASAP

As a fan of Yungblud, I was super excited to use this as my introduction into comics/graphic novels.
As I expected it didn't shy away from the powerful messages that Dom puts into everything he does and I loved that a lot!
To be honest I got confused a lot, whether that was because this is my first comic and I'm just not used to it all yet, or because it felt quite rushed, and jumpy. IDK.
I loved the variations of the art style in each part, but would of preferred if it was consistent. (Preferably the first art style, that was my favourite haha)
But I still enjoyed it, and wouldn't say no to getting the sequel.
