Issue Notes

The indicia says "First paperback printing: March 2019", but the book was scheduled to ship in the Diamond solicitations on June 5th, and actually shipped on June 12th 2019.

The book in general is duo-tone (black with purple/blue tones), but the author photos inside are full color, as is the back cover with a golden "A JUNIOR LIBRARY GUILD SELECTION" logo.
