Thank you Abram ComicArts and Netgalley for this eARC, these opinions are my own. A fun graphic novel with plenary of queer spirit!! Marvin comes from a small town where there isn’t much of a queer community. But this weekend he’s going to L.A. to meet up with his best friend who’s in her first year of college. They’re going to see their favorite drag queen preform and Marvin can’t wait. That is until that they arrive and Annie surprises him with her girlfriend, also named Annie. He just wanted to spend some time with his best friend and Annie’s girlfriend was not invited. Then Miss Duboiz bombs and is rude to him. Plus his ex-best friend Roland happens to be at show. Before Marvin can demand they leave a literal monster shows up at the club. Turns out there are monsters everywhere. Marvin is determined to get home to check on his mother and sister, he’s joined by both Annie’s, Roland, Miss Duboiz, and the club’s manager. They make there way through West Hollywood in order to help get him back to his family. But along the way they’ll find out the secret to the monsters and face some of their unresolved issues with one another. Can Marvin figure out what is going on? Can he make it back to his family? Will he be able to fix his friendships? A super cute story full of queer badassery! And fun adventure with lots of heart! Highly recommend!

This wasn't my taste, but I think that my patrons will enjoy it. I am excited to see how it will perform with my students.

This was a wild ride!

Filled with drama, pettiness, growth, conspiracies and monsters. There were moments that might feel frustrating "when someone let's their feelings get hurt, especially when the world is ending." But let's be for real, that is super realistic for us as humans.
