Welcome to Litsy!

I do love a boarding school book!

A cute little middle grade story of friendship at a boarding school. Only mild conflict between characters that gets resolved rather easily.

My review of this book can be found on my YouTube Vlog at:

Enjoy!

I love everything Faith Erin Hicks does, this was no exception. Magical mystery set in some kind of a school books are like a whole obsession for me (see A Deadly Education, Magic for Liars, Carry on, Ninth House) and it was super fun to have one in graphic novel form. More please! 😍🦄 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#NoShelfControl Post 2/7: Graphic Novels

A taste of the reworking Hicks did to rerelease her graphic novel, reinked and colored. A snazzy upgrade for a great story.

The first scholarship student to attend prestigious Ellsmere Academy, Juniper doesn‘t know what to expect but she is excited for the new school year. What follows is a pretty standard story—a new student from a disadvantaged background trying to fit into a world of wealth & privilege, & the friends & enemies she makes along the way—which is nevertheless fun & enjoyable because the art, as expected in a Hicks book, is delightful.
