"Quincy has the same dream every year on Christmas Eve--of finding a little boy under the tree holding a special gift for her--and every Christmas morning, she's awoken to find a gift wrapped in tinfoil with her name on it... When school resumes after the winter break, Quincy's class discovers they have an unusual new transfer student named Cupid. Ridiculously cute and friendly, the new boy has everyone both enamored and confused. Those antlers can't be real...can they? And could it be... that Cupid has his sights on Quincy?!"--Page 4 of cover.

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Quincy is an average artsy high school girl who one day encounters Cupid, a hot transfer student. He has his clever eye on her, and slowly brings her into his world-which includes family members who have nothing in common except for antlers and jobs in delivery services. As Quincy gets further into the mystery of her connection with Cupid, she has to wrestle with conflicting love interests while dealing with her own unexpected set of antlers. Jean, illustrator for the Miss Peregrine's graphic novel series, proves herself one of the first American cartoonists to truly capture the feel of Japanese manga; the book is barely distinguishable from its Japan-made counterparts. The pacing and length are spot-on for the story's scope, and the artwork features attractive character designs, most notably for people of color (including Quincy, who's African-American). This fluffy, sweet one-shot is well worth picking up for anyone interested in manga romance or an African-American lead . (Jan.) © Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
