Critics Review

“A must-read that portrays one teenage girl’s struggles to find—and stand up for—herself.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review)“An insightfully honest exploration of teen girlhood.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)“Every scene is gorgeously drawn with bright, poppy color. An earnest and honest journey through one girl’s most eventful school year.” — Booklist“This spot-on story adeptly c­aptures the struggle of finding one’s own identity while constantly being told by others what that identity should look and act like, whether one is cis or transgender. Visaggio’s ­characters ring true with a wide range of personalities; Ganucheau’s artwork brings the world to life, particularly with Phoebe, who practically walks off the brightly ­colored panels with authenticity. A ­standout graphic novel that belongs in every ­collection for artful ­storytelling, beautifully expressive imagery, and a heroine who is admirable and fully ­human.” — School Library Journal (starred review)
