Roller Girl
-Victoria Jamieson

This is by far, one of the best graphic novels I have read thus far.  Astrid is a twelve year old that has always done everything with her best friend Nicole.  Now as the two girls enter into a new phase of life, their lives seem to be taking different paths.  Enter the world of Roller Derby...I was super excited to see this sport woven into this story.  I also love Astrid, following her journey of self discovery is awesome.  This is a great story for girls, roller derby fans, anyone who wants to read a story that shows readers it's okay to be who you are should read this novel.  You will not be disappointed! #GNCelebration

    We absolutely loved this book! Have you read Sunny Side Up by Jenny and Matthew Holmes? It is an amazing GN about a very powerful subject.

      Yes, I got an ARC a while back and absolutely loved it. I am also a huge fan of El Deafo, Nimona and Lumberjanes.
