Can't wait to share this with my daughter I love the art, characters, and story.Causes The Feels. Adorable innocent dating.Love and respect how Jules's private issue was handled. Beware the use of "exotic" to describe people. Thankfully only once. Touching mother-daughter moments. The metaphor about...

I wasn't expecting this book to be as thoughtful as it is. I love how Paige expresses her feelings in her sketchbook, and how the visuals work with the words. The story is simple enough, in that new-girl-in-school subgenre. Paige and her friends are likeable and have real personality. Paige wanting ...

Sorta disappointed that I haven’t take a look at this sooner. (It’s been sitting on my shelf for a while now.) It’s a quick enough read to breeze through, and it’s fairly enjoyable.I like that it’s a very relatable premise. Having an artistic main character write/draw/rhyme their story has been done...

Perfectly capturing the angst of a 16 year old artistic girl who relocates from Virginia to NYC, Page by Paige echoes the sketchbook that Paige creates to chronicle the transition of her identity. Many interesting elements here, but most profoundly expressed are the insecurities of a creative, intro...
