Comments: Lindsey is freaking out over a haircut she gave herself, and she definitely overreacts. Her mom looks cute wearing square glasses.
Lindsey goes on a date and ends up having a great time. By the end of it, she feels thrilled and genuinely happy.
The art style is simple but effective, portraying the characters clearly and giving readers a strong sense of what they are feeling.
Lindsey meets her boyfriend’s friends, and for some unexplained reason, a few characters are illustrated as anthropomorphic people, which adds an unusual visual element to the story.
As the story progresses, Lindsey begins to notice problems emerging in her relationship with her boyfriend, Jason. She is essentially living a normal college life, navigating relationships and personal growth.
Lindsey and her friends attend a party where a lot unfolds. Lindsey truly cares about Jason, but he doesn’t seem to share those feelings to the same degree. He proves himself to be a real scumbag, showing little concern for Lindsey despite being in a relationship with her.
A full-page illustration of Lindsey playing the drums beautifully showcases her talent and stands out as a highlight of the comic.
The final portion of the comic shifts focus toward the supporting characters, giving them time to shine.
This comic leaves readers feeling good about both the characters and themselves. The cast is easy to relate to, and Lindsey is someone you genuinely want to see happy. She deserves the best, and you get the sense that she will eventually find it. She has a quiet energy that is truly contagious.
