Inescapable on the street, in  school, and even at home. A black hole forever trying to pull them in. Claire knows what they’re supposed to be—and according to their Catholic family, that’s definitely not someone who’d kiss a girl at a party. When the news gets out, the questions get hard: Is Claire having a girlfriend the thing that feels wrong? Or is it being a girl?The answer is easy: drink it all away.When a downward spiral puts Claire on a collision course with court-ordered rehab, the unexpected happens: Claire is soon surrounded by a group of new friends and, with the help of a patient counselor, finds a  space to unpack all the bad they've experienced. But as Claire’s  release gets closer so does the question: Can Claire stay sober and true  in a world seemingly never made for them?Set in 1980s Troy, New York, Constellations is a portrait of a queer teen living in the margins but determined to  find their way ahead. Done in watercolor and ink, debut author-artist  Kate Glasheen has created a world where strong lines meet soft color,  and raw emotions meet deep thought in this story of hope, humor, and  survival.A Booklist Editors’ Choice: Graphic NovelA School Library Journal Best Book of the YearA Booklist Top Ten First Novel for Youth\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Holiday House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53708992905516,"sku":"9780823454884","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/4528\/9004\/files\/9780823454884.jpg?v=1786786535","url":"https:\/\/comicsnearme.com\/products\/9780823454884-constellations","provider":"Stuff Your Mom Hates Comics Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
