This is a pretty nostalgic book that reminds me a lot of spending time in alternative or goth communities as a high school student (in small town UK rather than USA), and I love the character design and details from Sophie Campbell. The greyscale art is really nice (although the lettering can be a bit tricky in places).

On the downside... not very much happens in the story, and even for a slice-of-life comic I find it hard to really get pulled in by any of the characters. A few of the characters are kind of annoying (in the natural way that young teenagers tend to be when you are reading about them as an adult) and I don't know if I'm engaged enough by their lives to continue reading.
