Elin Hilderbrand and her daughter have found new scenery to write in: Tiffin Academy, an exclusive college-prep/boarding school. Readers spend a year in the school, digging into student drama and teacher drama... Much like Hilderbrand's other books, it's a hefty read at over 500 pages. This shouldn't be a deterrent though - I loved settling in each evening with the story and knowing I could read for an hour and still have plenty more to go. With all the drama it was still very much a comfort read.

"Sera Swan had been one of the most powerful witches in Britain, but a decision she made caused her to lose most of her magic. With the help of a talking fox, chicken made of bone (promise it’s cuter than it sounds), and a grumpy – yet handsome, magical historian help round out a very unique cast of characters. It’s a cozy story that packs an emotional punch."

Brittany (Children’s Services, Trafalgar Branch)

“A grotesque and haunting novel that is not so subtle in its messaging. This is a book about survival, identity, and feeling like your body is not your own.”
