"Set in the early 2000s, Mall Goth is a coming-of-age story about Goth Liv Holme, who has to navigate growing up amidst moving, starting at a new school, and the dissolution of her parents' marriage"-- - Simon and Schuster
Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me gets a Y2K twist in this coming-of-age young adult graphic novel from acclaimed comic artist Kate Leth about a 2000s goth teen whose favorite part of her new town is the mall.
Liv Holme is not exactly thrilled to be moving to a new town with her mother. After all, high school can be brutal, even more so when youâre a fifteen-year-old, bisexual goth. But Liv is determined to be who she is, bullies or not. Still, being the new kid and the only out student brings her a lot of unwelcome attention, and Liv flounders in her search for community. The only person who makes time for her is one of teachers, but Liv isnât sure how to feel about the way he behaves toward her.
Thankfully, sheâs found the perfect escape: the mall. Under its fluorescent lights, Liv feels far away from her parentsâ strained marriage and the peers who donât understand her. Amid the bright storefronts, food court smell, and anonymous shoppers, Liv is safely one of the crowd and can enjoy the feeling of calling the shots in her own life for once.
With the help of her suburban refuge, Liv sets off on a journey of self-acceptance and learns to navigate the ups and downs of high school and to recognize true friendship.
