Luna is a middle
school witch whose potions are missing. She brings her case to the Chicagoland Detective
agency, which is a group of her fellow students who like to solve crimes. But
it turns out that Luna has a crush on Megan, one of the detectives, and when
she gives her a love potion things go wrong. Now Megan is in love with their
talking dog Bradley. Things come to a head at the science fair, where the
potions cause havoc. Will the true culprit be found? Will Luna find the real
girl she is supposed to be with?
This graphic
novel was a chaotic mess. I thought it was both too mature and too immature.
Featuring girl on girl crushes between 13 year olds and then super immature
jokes and a really random goofy plotline. The artwork was unappealing and only
added to the confusion of this bizarre story. I think the end of the line for
me was the girl on dog crush. Yuck.
