A sweet, compelling story with wonderful illustrations. I can't wait to purchase this for the high school library that I work at. (Though, I also think it's an enjoyable read for young and adult readers alike.)

Sincerely, Harriet is the sweet story of a girl who moves to Chicago with her family. I loved how curious and creative Harriet was. The representation in this book was great, Harriet has MS and I think it was well portrayed in the story. I also appreciated the teenage struggles the author decided to include in the book, like for example Harriet having difficulties making friends. Pearl and Harriet's friendship was just the cherry on top, I enjoyed reading their conversations and their talks about books and the past.
I highly recommend this graphic novel.
