This book was overall so much fun. Their vacation was so cute and I love Bond.
Becky's scenes with Lloyd were so funny and cringey at the same time. I think it really captured a part of being a kid that no one talks about, for obvious reasons, which is having inappropriate crushes. Especially how kids aren't normally capable of realizing why their feelings are inappropriate, much less that they are. This brought up some embarrassing memories for me, so I had to put it down for a bit. While it was at times funny to see how ridiculous Becky was being, I'm glad more books don't cover this topic.

Although there are a lot of applicapble content warnings and these things are more than just briefly mentioned, the comic is still very lighthearted and wholesome.
