5/5 ⭐
I really love the graphic novels that have been coming out these past few years and this one is no exception. I was so excited to read this when I saw the description and it kept me entranced from page one. I basically read it one sitting,
I love Haley. She is probably my favorite character this year. She is dedicated, exciting, powerful, and also she is a POC. She is a hoot. I loved that she wasn't willing to change who she was because of the other characters' demands or expectations of her. Which we saw later on influence the others to step out of their assigned character roles into something else that they wanted to be or just to try.
The plot may come off as outlandish and cheesy but when you really look at it, it's about more than trying to stop leaks in the universe and being who you are truly and also allowing yourself to explore who you are and who you might want to be. Which I think is something we take for granted and this story does a really good job of putting that into perspective.
Also, I would like to note that the women in this graphic novel save the day. And I loved that. They swoop in, knock the guys on the heads and fix it. Add in the gothic romance jokes and comments this is a delightfully funny story I think everyone should read.
Thank you to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing for the eARC for review.
