A teen social media star learns he can't control everything in this delicious, queer graphic novel adaptation that relocates Jane Austen's Emma to a modern-day high school in Queens, New York. Evan Horowitz has it all: beauty, brains, and a not-so-secret flair for matchmaking! An Insta influencer with a talent for makeup and a taste for romance, he's no stranger to playing cupid for those hopelessly clueless in finding love. So when shy transfer student Natalia shuffles into school one day, Evan can't help but get his hands messy! With so many matches to choose from, it's not long before he sets a plan in motion for Natalia--much against the better judgement of his level-headed best friend, Davi. But he takes things too far, creating a web of drama that spirals out of his control. Can Evan learn to put the people closest to him before his misguided ambition? Or will he lose them and his own chance at romance, too?
