I Hated You in High School
Ratings2
Average rating3.3
An easygoing, low-angst, sweet romantic read.
Watching the main character go from feelings of resentment for events she didn't even remember and being too much in her own head to finally having the tough conversations is one of the most realistic and healthy representations of growth that I've seen in a graphic novel.
The characters were diverse and interesting, the plot was intriguing and kept me interested even when it was sort of obvious what was going to unfold, the art style is unique and satisfying to see, and the overall story gave me the warm fuzzies. I love a good WLW story and this checked all the boxes for me.
Although I thoroughly enjoyed the read, it felt very surface level and lacked the depth I expected. The romance felt rushed and there could have been some more hard-hitting and interesting plot points to draw everything together with a bow. Like I said, it's a simple and quick, low-angst sapphic romance read.

This was a straightforward read. It wasn’t particularly angsty, and there weren't too many conflicts in the present timeline.
The artwork wasn’t particularly impressive, but the shading was visually pleasing and made things easy to follow.
The story itself was a mixed bag. Some parts were really enjoyable, but others felt kind of meh. I wasn’t fully convinced by the backstory and the eventual resolution. It felt like the past issues resolved way too easily.
Despite these flaws, it’s an okay read if you’re looking for something positive, simple and overall warm.
