Twelfth Grade Night (Arden High, Book 1)
Twelfth Grade Night (Arden High, Book 1) | Molly Booth, Stephanie Strohm
4 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
The course of true love never did run smooth . . . and neither does high school in this new graphic novel series for fans of Heartstopper and The Prince and the Dressmaker. Vi came to Arden High for a fresh start and a chance to wear beanies and button-ups instead of uniform skirts. And though doing it without her twin feels like being split in half, Vi finds her stride when she stumbles (literally!) into broody and beautiful poet-slash-influencer, Orsino. Soon Vi gets roped into helping plan the school's Twelfth Grade Night dance, and she can't stop dreaming about slow dancing with Orsino under the fairy lights in the gym. The problem? All Vi's new friends assume she's not even into guys. And before Vi can ask Orsino to the dance, he recruits Vi to help woo his crush, Olivia. Who has a crush of her own . . . on Vi. Star-crossed love abounds in this hilarious and romantic story of self-discovery, mistaken identities, and the magic that happens when we open our hearts to something new.

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.

Cinfhen Sounds like a perfect lighthearted read💜 10mo

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. 🧚‍♀️

Saknicole Twelfth Night is such a fun play. I love all the modern adaptations. Also, She‘s the Man is a gem! 11mo

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.
