{"product_id":"laura-dean-keeps-breaking-up-with-me","title":"Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom This One Summer co-creator Mariko Tamaki comes a hilarious and poignant story of teen heartbreak and friendship.\u003cbr\u003eAll Freddy Riley wants is for Laura Dean to stop breaking up with her. The day they got back together was the best one of Freddy’s life, but nothing’s made sense since. Laura Dean is popular, funny and SO CUTE … but she can be really thoughtless, even mean. Their on-again, off-again relationship has Freddy’s head spinning — and Freddy’s friends can’t understand why she keeps going back.\u003cbr\u003eWhen Freddy consults the services of a local mystic, the mysterious Seek-Her, she isn’t thrilled with the advice she receives. But something’s got to give: Freddy’s heart is breaking in slow motion, and she may be about to lose her very best friend as well as her last shred of self-respect. Fortunately for Freddy, there are new friends, and the insight of advice columnist Anna Vice, to help her through being a teenager in love.\u003cbr\u003eMariko Tamaki and Rosemary Valero-O’Connell bring to life a sweet and spirited tale of young love that asks us to consider what happens when we ditch the toxic relationships we crave to embrace the healthy ones we need.\u003cbr\u003eTamaki explores the nuances of both romantic and platonic relationships with raw tenderness and honesty. Valero-O’Connell’s (Lumberjanes: Bonus Tracks, 2018, etc.) art is realistic and expressive, bringing the characters to life through dynamic grayscale illustrations featuring highlights of millennial pink. Freddy and her friends live in Berkeley, California, and have a diversity of body shapes, gender expressions, sexualities, and skin tones.\u003cbr\u003eA triumphant queer coming-of-age story that will make your heart ache and soar.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46110022795324,"sku":null,"price":16.79,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/3677\/6508\/files\/81uzN2Iq-AL._AC_AIweblab1378949_T3_FMavif_SF516.0_327.0_PQ65.avif?v=1788181626","url":"https:\/\/nssbb.ednet.ns.ca\/products\/laura-dean-keeps-breaking-up-with-me","provider":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
