Best friends Brit, Abby, Christine, and Sasha navigate high school, friendships, and crushes in this entertaining and sweet graphic novel. Abby is busy with a campaign for menstrual justice on campus, but is also wondering how (or if) to label her sexual orientation; Christine, for her part, struggles with telling Abby that she likes her as more than a friend, though, afraid it will ruin their friendship. Brit’s heart is torn between two different boys, while Sasha struggles to balance time with her boyfriend, sports, and academics.
There’s a lot of personal growth here, but the story is engagingly told and emphasizes the friendships among its main cast. This recommended read will likely appeal to readers younger than its high-school-junior protagonists.
