This one was recommended to me as part of the 12 Friends, 12 Recs Instagram challenge, and I am so glad it was.
First, this was full wonderfully bright and vibrant Steven Universe-esque art that I ate up. It was also incredibly funny and full of wonderful queer community, which I think is very important for young queers to see.
The angst and the emotional stringing-along was VERY relatable, and the story had a nice Juno-ish balance of drama and comedy.
I absolutely devoured this one and cannot recommend it enough.
