Love the illustrations. The story has so much potential but unfortunately it felt a bit wonky.

This was fun and cute.  I liked the school/teaching aspect paired with the fantasy.

Sorceline is enrolled in the cryptozoology program on the Island of Vorn. She has a talent for fantastical beings. All children want to be chosen as an apprentice by Professor Archibald Balzar, who will select one from among the top students.

This was a wonderful middle-grade fantasy graphic novel. It resembles a cross between Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts, in my opinion. As somemone who enjoyed  HarryPotter reading this was an enjoyable experience So, if you enjoy those two series, you might a this. Beautiful, young-appealing illustrations with lovely colors are depicted in these works.

Vol. 1 of this graphic book (of 4). Before I started reading it, I was unaware of that. The graphic novel features a sudden finish and an open conclusion. I'm eagerly anticipating volume 2.

Not my jam

I loved this book, that was a bit surprising for me, but I really enjoyed it. Granted it is written for a younger audience, but I loved it nonetheless. 

Initial thoughts on finishing:
4/5 stars overall for beautiful illustrations and adorable cryptic creatures! Also I’m very tempted to give it 5 stars because it’s a translated text and I believe the other 4 publications are out in French, and I really want them to publish the rest of these in English!
- I’m newer to graphic novels and have discovered after reading a couple this year that they can jump around a little bit more with the plot from scene to scene more like a film than a book; so that always jars me a bit but this one is written well and doesn’t feel inconsistent or jutting.
- Sorceline is a great main character and the magical boarding school is filled with danger, magical education, cryptid creatures, and mystery.
- I predicted the ending but I think that’s because this is intended for younger audiences and I didn’t mind ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ overall a fun, gorgeous, quick read.
