"[An] engaging story of horrifying bodily changes that upend the teenage experience… The pencil-shaded, hand-drawn style of the art contrasts well with the tech-focused story." — Booklist "Bionic reboots the teenage romance and propels it into the twenty-first century." — BD Gest "A very fine social critique, full of strangeness and uncertainty." — Bodoï |
