This book was pretty standard. I think the idea was super interesting but the payoff was a little lame. Also if you followed the web comic on Instagram, there's not a huge departure from those. It's a pretty slice of life comic without a huge overarching plot.

The only enjoyable part of this book were the last 50 pages, and even that's pushing it. The plot dragged so much that I was 100 pages in and still not past what was explained in the blurb. Honestly had so much hope for this book but it did not deliver.

I finished this book in one day and I have no idea what to say about it. I feel like it threw me against a wall. I can't even tell if I'd recommend it. I'll get back to you on that

Enjoyable read! Haven't read any of the Brontës books but a good read anyway. A good train read.

Such a cute read, especially when paired with Beast Boy and Beast Boy Loves Raven. Such a good introduction to teen titans if you haven't read it before.
