Darla's Reviews > Drama

Telgemeier totally nails the high school drama experience! From audition jitters to ambitious backstage plans to unexpected snafus during the shows, the whole experience is included in a delightful range of colors. Our main character Callie is a riot and it is great fun to follow her through the school year and show timeline. The twin brothers, Justin and Jesse, at times were difficult to tell apart in the illustrations. At times I was not sure which twin Callie was interacting with. Unlike Telgemeier's other graphic novels (Sisters, Smile, etc.), this is a YA graphic and does include a LGBT story line.
