The Love Report

A School Library Journal Good Comics for Kids Weekly Pick "Ah, young love! By turns sweet and dramatic, this graphic novel encompasses all of the angst, warmth, and bewilderment of experiencing all types of love - romantic, familial, and companionable - as a middle grader." - Courtney Yee, Changing Hands Bookshop "This fast-paced read hits all the dramatic notes... art is vibrant and will be highly appealing to manga fans." - School Library Journal "An excellent addition to the gallery of tween/teen domestic titles like Telgemeier's Drama, Chmakova's Berrybrook Middle Schools Series, and the romance oriented Baby Sitter's Club....Definitely going on my list for tween graphic novel readers' advisory for tweens looking for read-a-likes for the titles above." - Chloe St. Claire, Multnomah County Library, Portland OR "Will hit home for many young teens that are confused about crushes and love and all the intricacies.....I often get asked for early teen books that have friendship as a main theme but without it being catty.....I'd highly recommend this for about 12-15 year olds, but it could resonate with older teens too." - Dephne De Grandpre, Kidsbooks Vancouver "I loved The Love Report. It was sweet and wonderful and timely. Everyone needs to read this book and feel the warmth and realness of these amazing characters." - Karen Blankenship, Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives "The PERFECT book for middle grade students! The artwork is beautiful and the story is masterful. This book fluidly covers so many different instances of love to shape what love can mean for anyone. It also briefly goes into the topic of boundaries and unwanted touch which is extremely important for our youth to understand." - Kathleen Daniels, Librarian, University of South Florida "Graphic novel readers go through a lot of books, so this is one to have on hand for readers who have worked their way through other titles with lots of drama like Miller's Besties: Work It Out, Holms' Real Friends, Jamieson's Roller Girl, and the works of Raina Telgemeier." - Ms. Yingling Reads "A fun read with gorgeous art on every page. Stunning to look at with a good core message about female friendship." - Jacey Anderson, Rediscovered Bookshop "Authentic representation of young antics and plots that is filled with genuine characters. Love the dialogue between the characters." - Came Johnson, Pittsvlvania County Public Library System (VA) "Portrays the frenetic pace of breakups and makeups very well....one to have on hand for readers who have worked their way through other titles with lots of drama like Miller's Besties: Work it Out, Holms' Real Friends, Jamieson's Roller Girl, and the works of Raina Telgemeier." - Ms. Yingling Reads "A great book for anyone who wants a middle grade novel about navigating complex relationships (of all types - platonic, romantic, familial, and so on) as well as anyone who wants to read a book with a strong cast of female characters. I feel like this would be good for fans of Raina Telgemeier's "Drama" or Svetlana Chmakova's Berrybrook Middle School series." -- Ash, Netgalley
