I'm gradually adding books I've read in 2021 to give a true reflection of the books I've read since keeping records.  This was the first book I read in 2021, and is what kick-started my reading journey having put reading on the back burner whilst bringing up the children, previously being an avid reader.  A fantasy  magical book, The umbrella academy meets Mis peregrines home for peculiar children. It's a great thought provokin  read, with a different slant on those with differences. Links Baker is the caseworker assigned to employed asses and to look at homes / orphanages by the Department in charge of magical youth. He is sent to the island The house on the Cerulean Sea to report on the practices of Arthur Parnasses and Zoe a sprite and 6 magical children. Wonderful with LGBTQ + themes. I loved it
