Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me

Oh my goodness, you could not pay me enough to go back to high school. Freddy was a frustrating character in an extremely realistic way for a high schooler. The ending was a little ambiguous to me, but since Laura and Freddy got together because of dancing, I interpreted this as a parallel to that and an HFN for Freddy and Doodle, which I loved. The art here is gorgeous, sort of dreamy and candy-colored while being realistic as well. This was a very fast read and one I liked a lot.
