Alice-Miranda Takes the Lead by Jacqueline Harvey

5.0

evil sloaneee!

I never realised how short slightly-evil Sloane’s arc was, but wow September was a piece of work

ALSO SEP AHHHH. I DO SHIP YOU-KNOW-WHO WITH AM BUT HOW DARE JACQUELINE WRITE SEP AS THE PRINCE AND AM AS SNOW WHITE AND NOT ASSUME WE’D SHIP THEM TWO (also we get the “I wish a girl like Alice Miranda was his sister” line from Sep soooo)

I’m useless at picturing characters in my mind (screw you lack of mind’s eye) but I don’t know why I imagine Sep to look like the male version of AM

is Sep blond like Sloane? or does he have brown hair? I will never know (though actually, I’ll probably keep an eye out now)

my 2022 reread so far!
