I must read the original novel that this is based off of. This graphic novel checks off all of my favorites when reading a story. Lesbian, person of color (this time a Puerto Rican from the Bronx... I am Puerto Rican from Queens, oh did I RELATE), and a real story coming of age story. Juliet's mother reminded me of mine, close minded. I related to her home life and the need to escape. Her journey to find herself spoke to me because it was all relatable.

I took off a star because I felt as if I was missing a chunk of a story which is why I want to read the original.

I received a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
