These three girls are gonna be the death of me 😭

Well, the shoe finally drops amidst a flurry of potential murder and other general psychosis. I commend this series for being very reluctant to make its lead character likeable in the slightest.
That’s probably being too hard to Bibi, who really just needs somebody to love and be loved by. Yet she also needs a straight jacket or a restraining order at several points, possibly with a citizen’s arrest thrown in.
I did appreciate Bibi’s honesty about the fact that she is privileged as heck because of her family money and it lets her get away with bloody murder (again, nearly literally). In other ways she’s practically delusional, but she knows why she faces no repercussions.
Amy continues to Amy, as we learn so much more about her and her relationship with Camilla and why she lives with her aunt. The amount of sheer whacked-out trauma that has been offloaded into this narrative is so contrived that it does feel like a soap opera sometimes.
What’s important about all this is that the reason Amy is the way she is stems from her belief that she’ll end up like her mother and hurt the person she cares about. I definitely like the way that Amy is portrayed as perhaps a little academically poor, yet quite astute when it comes to reading other people.
So when Bibi’s thoughts of Peter (and killing him when he asks a different girl to prom) keep getting Amy’s face stuck in there, Bibi has a realization and we’re off to the unhealthiest races you can imagine.
Except Amy knew before what Bibi wouldn’t admit, and she doesn’t want any of this because of her aforementioned fears. Which, of course, leads to Bibi living with Camilla. I swear it makes sense.
Narratively, this story is all over creation, sometimes within the same page. It lacks a distinct means of communicating when it is doing a flashback, so there are times when you just have to shrug and hope you’ll figure it all out eventually.
It’s not the strongest writing either, although I will say that it manages to be oddly compelling. That may be down to my general fondness for this sort of ‘broken people find one another’ story, plus some of the small details (like changes to Bibi’s creepy heart eyes) that show the author is paying attention.
Plus, it can be actually funny when it wants to be. There’s a fantastic locker joke that is good on its own, but then has a very funny and mean capper served up by Bibi. The whole bit where Camilla and Bibi live together is also really, really good.
This is written to be read in short bursts weekly and adapting that online comic vibe to print has its own set of issues. Sometimes it works out, sometimes less so. I think this is a ‘less so’, but I still like it. Even if it seemingly just jettisons plot threads with no resolution, or very ‘well that happened’ at best.
3 stars - I don’t even know why I find this so readable. It felt like the first two volumes were better, but there are good jokes and I like that the chase is now officially on. It is an ungainly mass, but not without merit.

Review of advance copy
Im counting this as the last volume. Honestly it did have a really good concept and I liked volumes 1 and 2 but for some reason after Bibi realized her crush for Amy she all of a sudden just quit her harmful tendencies and being a asshole to everyone? I know she said that what she truly wanted was to be happy but I dont think it'll change you psychologically like this. She still has that smart-ass attitude but thats it. Although I did like most of this, it feels all too sudden in the end, kind of?

I am obsessed with the "I Love Amy" graphic novels. I read this immediately the day it shipped to my door. I think this one is probably my favorite because we get much focus on Camilla and we have a nice little dynamic between the rival friends. We also get more introspection from Amy as she realizes what her true feelings are :)
