5.0

a really delightful, sweet, and heartfelt coming of age YA queer story with a touch of environmentalism.

i didn't realize prior to reading this that it's a selkie story (i thought mermaid), which was really fun! i thought the art was adorable esp with the seals and the outfits the girls wear. comics with marine life will always be my fav 🩵

i thought the characters and story were well done in comic standalone and i found myself very moved by it. instant fav for sure!
