"The art is imaginative and engaging, with rich, evocative color
schemes. [...] A wild ride." --Kirkus Reviews

full palette of bold, contrasting colors grace a diverse cast of
characters." --Publishers Weekly

LGBTQIA+ representation. All that and bright, bold illustrations
AND great writing? Total win. Sweet, funny, and enjoyably,
delightfully weird." --School Library Journal's Teen Librarian
