Praise for Sweet Revenge : Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection "Perfectly captures a certain type of gender-nonconforming teenage yearning. Funny, stylish, and full of feeling, this book had me kicking my feet in delight!" -- Maia Kobabe, author of Gender Queer: A Memoir "Heartfelt and raw, soft with a razor-sharp queer twist, Sweet Revenge is a perfect tale of wanting -- and wanting to be -- our crushes." -- Ngozi Ukazu, author of the New York Times bestseller Check, Please! Praise for Please Be My Star : Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year * "Erika's struggles with mental health strike an empathetic chord that will resonate with readers. The clean, inviting art features varied panel shapes and perspectives, and highlights the characters' emotional expressions. Manga-style art animates this charming story of self-discovery." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review * "This sweet romance/coming-of-age combo incorporates a great mix of cross-cultural visual homages, including nods to manga, telenovelas, and k-pop stans. Readers will appreciate the vibrant color scheme throughout. Elliott thoughtfully captures the essence of being the weird kid among weird kids and finding connection not despite but because of that quirkiness.
