Jessie reviewed The Backstagers by James Tynion IV (The Backstagers, #1)
Review of 'The Backstagers' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Wow I loved this. It spoke to the high school theatre geek in my soul, my love of magical realism, and my soft spot for anime-style cartoonish emotionality. Plus the art is gorgeous. Its main disadvantage as that the all-boys school setting leaves little room for female characters, but the school is, adorably, named for the patron saint of theatre, and the characters it does have are colorful, varied and (best of all) sometimes queer. I would like the next one to be released immediately, please.
