This is fast food, but I see how it’s entertaining.
Sophie is over-powered and oh-so special, all the boys want her, and everyone wants to be her friend. You could say Mary-sue, or you can see this as a cute, juvenile female power fantasy.
Judging by the graphic adaptation, it’s an easy story to follow along and I see why there are so many books in the series.
Overall, I liked the art style as it was very cute and Disney meets Winx Club. The development with Biana, who I thought was going to be a one-note mean girl, was good as well. They gave her an understandable motivation behind her frostiness. Sir Tiergan was one of my favorite characters. That man was not for the shenanigans. Keefe was much more interesting than Fitz to me.
