I got an advanced copy from Eldeweiss Plus to review, before getting a physical copy to get signed by the author at a festival.
What drew me to the book was the art app after seeing the trailer for the book.
I loved Ivy and enjoyed reading about the art aspect of the book, and her working to discover the VEIL users identities and doing surprise anonymous acts of kindness to them. I even liked it when one of the acts went wrong, becoming a story that could happen in real life, because real life isn't perfect.
I could see and feel Ivy's struggle/journey to feel more accepting of being able to show her art, and her struggles with figuring out her feelings towards her best friend, Harold, and a school classmate, Nate.
The story is full of art, learning confidence, and trying to understand one's self. It's a good read for teens. You ART to pick up this book.
