I try not to spoil any ajor plotpoints but my reviews does kind of tell you in what direction the story goes (without details of course), so feel free to only read my short review and skip the longer thoughts.

Short review: I really enjoyed this book. I got attached to the characters and really appreciated seeing quite complex teen friendship dynamics. I loved the non binary and aro ace rep too!
On a slightly more subjectively disappointing note, I didn't like the ending.

Longer thoughts, slight spoilers:
- As is often the case with graphic novels, some things felt like they could have been developed a little more. Or maybe I should say I really wanted to learn more about things that weren't the limain focus. Family, especially.
- I must say I struggled to completely understand some reasons behind the characters choices, especially Leighton's family (who seem particularly accepting at times and then horrifyingly disrespectful and snooty at other times).
- Bittersweet can be good sometimes. But I do think I would have preferred a slightly different ending, for this story.
It honestly feels like the writer and artist want to end on a bittersweet postitive-ish note, but to me it's mostly negative.
One of the main characters is going to live a particularly difficult life and I don't like knowing that...
