Welcome to Litsy!

Library pickup today - a high school Twelfth Night retelling graphic novel.

Vi is a new student at Arden High - where ghosts and witches and fairies roam. Tanya and Ron (the teen fairy royalty) have taken a shine to her, but world-weary Puck sighs: "She's not actually cool; she's just wearing a beanie."

A YA graphic novel on loan from @Eyelit about Vi, a student attending a new school. She makes friends with an eclectic group who play DND and are on a decoration committee for a school dance, and finds herself entwined in high school crush complexities.

Queer rep of multiple kinds, fairy realm rep? Lol, and a bit of family drama. Sweet but not too deep.

Happily using for #booked2013 #lovetriangle.
✅CW if needed.

I was never a Shakespeare fan until I read Twelfth Night in high school and then saw She‘s The Man. If I didn‘t already love the insanity and confusion of characters in the story, I would have after Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum made me cry tears of laughter (comedy GOLD). This graphic novel iteration is fun! I enjoyed the fantasy adjacent setting and the 21st century spin on the events. 🧚‍♀️

There is a moment with mixed up insta tags that is so perfectly the mood of Shakespearean comedy, that I actually gasped. Fun contemporary high school version of Twelfth Night.
