I am not into fantasy reads. Yes ma’am, no dragons, no elves, no swords for me. But December is when I crave me some little Terry Pratchett or Neil Gaiman (Urban fantasy?). The season and all its ho-ho-hos pairs well with a bit of dark fantasy/ dark academia vibes. So, I tried Christelle Dabos’ for the first time with her book Here, and Only Here. And this was so GOOD!
- Iris, a shy and timid first-year student who doesn’t want to attract any attention, and wants to blend in so much that she literally becomes invisible to the world around her.
- Pierre, the “lousy kid”. A second-year student who in a class of 27, where everyone is paired up, is the odd one out. Forever destined to be the designated punching bag of the class, he is violently bullied and he wouldn’t want to change anything about it.
- Madeleine, an extremely insecure and fiercely competitive third-year student who gets appointed as “The Chosen One” by a mystical spirit.
- Guy, a fourth-year bully - but a deeply conflicted and vulnerable kid - who meets his match in a new girl in class.
