i finally got around to reading this and its so wonderful!! the art style is so singular and striking and perfectly vibrant and rubbery and glossy and iconographic in all the best ways. and the way the dialogue shifts between naturalistic and lyrical works so well for the dreamlike tone established throughout. so pleasant and sweet, has me craving ultra syrupy soda and inhaling a concentrated dose of cute girls doing cute things through a plastic mask with stickers all over
