Absolutely incredible. The story alone is amazing, addressing hard and important topics of whitewashed feminism, queer BIPOC spaces, and reserving the privilege of your friendship and love for those who value you and respect you, but the graphic novel took the story to a whole new level. The artwork was beautiful and for me made all the emotions of the story even deeper and richer. I would recommend reading the original book first, and then picking up the graphic novel.
