So happy to finally read this
I’ve been wanting to read this book for over a year now. Ever since I first heard about it on booktube and then saw the cover I was hooked. And I wasn’t disappointed either. The story was wonderful and the characters just so well-done. While it wasn’t a 5 star for me as I felt like I wanted a little something more from the ending? It’s still a solid 4 star and definitely a graphic novel I’d recommend as it has beautifully done D/deaf and HoH as well as LGQBT+ representation. I was also happy to see old characters as well. And while I want to give a warning for the following sensitive material such as mentions and discussion of parental loss, grief, depression, and abuse? I also have to say that I felt it was handled well. Though a quick disclaimer that you should look up the content warnings for yourself in case I missed any. Last, though certainly not least, the art was lovely and just absolutely jaw-dropping at some parts especially in the depictions of magic. Hopefully one day soon this will grace my shelves cause I’d love to own a physical copy of something this beautiful.
