erine's review against another edition
emotional
A very typical memoir of coming-of-age, including friendships, romance, grades and tests, looking to the future, and family dynamics. But all of it is set against Sophia's family backdrop, which is perfectly normal except no one knows what her parents do for a living, not even Sophia. Both relatable and intriguing.

This barley made sense like I get it's a memior but it's all over the place and the stories don't line up, there's parts where's there huge gaps. I liked the charcters hated Beth and lots of others but still couldn't hold on to finishing this I literally had to force myself, to sophia if you're going to write another book make sure it makes sense because it doesn't one bit.

I wish it had gone more into the interactions with the parents and their relationship to work; it feels like their secret was meant to be something bigger, but it was never really explored. Still a good coming-of-age story.

This was a really interesting perspective I hadn't thought about. I enjoyed the story and have so many questions for her parents. My only critique was the dark lettering on a dark background. It wasn't on every page, and I understand why she did it, but it was still hard to read at times.

Great graphic memoir about coming of age and identity, and also family secrets (CIA spy parents).
