Other than the fact that I felt like this needed to be a tad longer (the storylines felt like they moved too quickly), I enjoyed this! The art was fun, the characters were relatable and well developed, and there are plenty of teens who will definitely relate to this story. I would definitely read more from Kate Leth!
It did feel like there was a lot jam packed into this fairly short book, so I think either cutting some of that out or expanding the book would have helped some of the plot lines breath a bit more. Especially since the book felt like it ended a tad abruptly. Nevertheless, a good story and good art will always win out!
