Growing up together—and apart

Set in the present day, this graphic novel draws on Tegan and Sara Quin’s early years as twins adjusting to a new home and school. Its coming-of-age story brings together first crushes, puberty, questions of queerness, and the sisters’ first steps into music. As they make different friends and begin to understand themselves along separate paths, the book traces how their bond changes alongside their identities. Blending fiction with autobiography, it offers a prequel of sorts to the adult memoir *High School*, with artwork by Tillie Walden.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of coming-of-age graphic novels about school, family, and changing friendships.
  • Readers interested in stories of queer self-discovery and first experiences with music.
  • Those curious about the early years behind Tegan and Sara’s adult memoir *High School*.

Book overview

From indie-pop twin-sister duo Tegan and Sara comes their bestselling contemporary middle grade graphic novel about growing up, coming out, and finding yourself through music and sisterhood--perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier's Sisters and Sweet Valley Twins.

Before Tegan and Sara took the music world by storm, the Quins were just two identical twins trying to find their place in a new home and new school. From first crushes to the perils of puberty, surviving junior high is something the sisters plan to face side by side, just like they've always faced things. But growing up also means growing apart, as Tegan and Sara make different friends and take separate paths to understanding their queerness. For the first time ever, they ask who one sister is without the other.

Set in the present day, this effervescent blend of fiction and autobiography, with artwork from Eisner Award-winner Tillie Walden, offers a glimpse at the twin sisters before they became indie-pop icons, exploring their shifting relationship, their own experiences coming out, and the first steps of their musical journey.

A prequel of sorts to the authors' bestselling adult memoir High School, now an 8-episode Freevee television series!
