A review by bookwyrmknits
One Year at Ellsmere by Faith Erin Hicks

emotional hopeful medium-paced

4.0

I really enjoyed this MG graphic novel. It's essentially a contemporary boarding school setting, though there's a small touch of the fantastical in it near the end as well. For me, reading this as an adult, the resolution played out exactly the way I expected it to go, but it was still fun even though I wasn't surprised by the turn of events. Younger readers might have a different experience. I've always enjoyed Faith Erin Hicks's artwork, so this was a pleasure to look at visually in addition to enjoying the story part of the graphic novel.
