Across a Field of Starlight by Blue Delliquanti
3.75
This one is for the graphic novel and sci fi fans!
I picked this up because I saw someone (I can’t remember who!) recommend this for the queer and fat rep. This is about two non-binary kids who meet and stay in touch into their teen years across universes and throughout a war. Their friendship prevails despite being on opposing ‘teams.’
I enjoyed the graphics in this a lot! And the self acceptance of the characters, and the way they accept each other. Everything else was kind of meh. I didn’t really follow the worldbuilding and plot all that well. I didn’t understand the politics of the war super well either. The rebellion and the side that just wanted to live in peace felt relatable for today’s time. It makes you think about oppression and violence, and what is worth fighting for.
Overall, I enjoyed the vibes of this! Even if I did not understand it entirely.
