"I'm already feeling complex sad feelings every second I'm on this planet!"

Arugula Suarez just wants to fit in. But it’s not easy when you’re a 16 year old lesbian alien from the planet Zlagdor. In an alien world where the only things that make sense are Roller Derby and salad, Arugula and her father, Nancy, must find out what it means to be human before time runs out for Planet Earth.
