I went into this story not having seen its film adaptation, however I did know it was LGBTQ fiction. Nonetheless, I thought the characters and plot both responsibility portrayed the struggle with developing and accepting one's identity, using love as the brush to paint this heartbreaking but still insightful about the merits but also risks of human love. Stylistically, I thought the dialogue was genuine and realistic given the ages of these characters, and the art style also helped accentuate and underscore the themes and plotline. While not a huge fan of the art style visually, it was still utilized effectively in the aforementioned ways. For my read, I believe the themes realized via the characters is the strongest element of this piece, but this is by no means undermining the comic from an artistic perspective. Overall, a great, raw coming of age story for anyone who isn't opposed to sexual situations here and there.
i didn't feel much tbh and maybe i'm a cold hearted hoe but whatever
