This mysterious graphic novel is a very interesting start to a series I hope to continue! An Unkindness of Ravens begins after Wilma moves to her dad's old hometown, she finds out on her first day of school that a missing girl, Waverly, looks exactly like her. More family mysteries, betrayal, and a magical war between two factions hundreds of years old quickly follow as Wilma gets stuck between the high school's two main cliques: the popular kids led by Scarlett, and the Ravens, Waverly's old group of friends.
I love anything having to do with ravens, clearly, so I was delighted to see this graphic novel delivered on its witchy premise! I enjoyed the pacing and the plot, and did enjoy the characters. I would have liked to see more personality from the side characters like the Ravens, but I'm anticipating based on the events of the book their backstories will come later. Overall, I enjoyed the twist and foreshadowing, and can't wait to see where this series will lead.
