Critics Review
An NYPL Best Book of the Year
Eisner Award Nominee
”[T]his graphic novel successfully empowers readers and guides them to speak up and reclaim agency when they feel something is not right…” –Kirkus, starred review
“This warm, candid friendship story isn’t shy about the message it’s trying to send–that periods need not be a dirty secret.” –School Library Journal
”…the story is firmly grounded in the realities faced by girls and women, and the timely messages of empowerment and political dialogue will resonate with socially minded youth.” –Booklist
“Shades of red aptly make up the book’s palette, and the cartoony style and figures resemble the Lumberjanes comic books. Fans of that series will appreciate this mix of friendship power and activism.” –The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
