About This Book
Set in 2005, this graphic novel follows four teenage girls, Brooke, Kelly, Maggie, and Melissa, living in a conservative Christian town. They discover a risqué anime DVD and decide to bootleg copies to sell to local boys for profit. What starts as a fun, illicit business venture quickly complicates their lives, especially their close-knit friendship. The story explores themes of first love, identity, and the challenges of navigating a conservative environment, particularly as romance blossoms between Brooke and Kelly, and Melissa develops feelings for one of them. It's an honest look at teen relationships, moral choices, and growing up.
