Tidesong, by Wendy Xu

A middle grade graphic novel about a girl learning magic, and the dragon boy who she accidentally becomes bound with. And idk.....a lot of the stuff happening in it felt so abrupt, I guess? Not enough space in the story around the Important Plot Bits and Life Lessons to make it all feel actually connected and flowing and cohesive. I liked the bones of the story, but the execution of it just didn't work for me.

Always disappointing when that happens! Better luck next time.
