A good inspiring story for anyone.
I liked the inclusion of characters and the story because I felt it was inspirational to not only cheerleaders and immigrants but to anyone who feels out of place. I would recommend this book to anyone whose ever felt like they don't belong and everyone who is scared of a challenge they must over come, even people who are afraid of failing something important to them. Overall pretty good book ๐

good for kids
Itโs a book about the fact that it doesnโt matter where you come from it matters how hard you try.

Fun, positive, smart memoir
Fun, smart, nuanced take on social acceptance or lack thereof which has a positive attitude without sugar-coating. Worth reading for all ages. In particular it's nice to see a book that doesn't lean into the stereotype of cheerleaders as evil, nasty people that has become such a cliche nowadays. Meanwhile, note that the 1-star reviewers (as of the time I write this) are lying. Not only is there no anti-Christian hate in this book or anything that could honestly be construed as such, but the author speaks appreciatively of her experiences attending Christian church growing up. ... she also attended services at a Buddhist temple, however, and as a child positively compared the social messages of Jesus and the Buddha and wondered if it was really necessary to choose between them. So now you know where the 1-star reviewers are coming from ... I would encourage everyone to report false reviews, as they violate the terms of service.

Captivating Story and Stunning Artwork โญโญโญโญโญ
The Tryout: A Graphic Novel is an amazing read! The story is engaging, full of emotion, and keeps you hooked from start to finish. The characters feel real and relatable, and the plot is both inspiring and exciting. The artwork is beautifully done, with expressive illustrations that perfectly complement the story. Itโs a graphic novel that appeals to both teens and adults alike, blending great storytelling with striking visuals. Highly recommend this book for anyone who loves compelling narratives and gorgeous artwork in a graphic novel format!
