Be Wary of the Silent Woods by Svetlana Chmakova
5.0
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ailis is a young girl who is also a Weirn, a witch born with an Astral, or a demon guardian. Her life isn’t all that different from other kids though, as she struggles through school, bullies, and crushes. Ailis’s life gets turned upside down when she notices a light on in an old abandoned house.
An absolutely wonderful book, this story has an original and unique plot that is complemented with beautiful illustrations that will keep any reader entertained! From the characters to the world building, nothing was forgotten in this graphic novel.
I loved that the human world lived in harmony with the magical world, and that they shared buildings like the school. The magic was unique too, I’ve never seen anything like an astral before, and loved it. I literally want my own astral. The author created diverse characters that I sympathized with, even the bullies. It left me wanting to read more about everyone and everything, and I hope the author does write and illustrate more!
