The Alchemist's Touch by Garrett Robinson

5.0

I absolutely loved this book! A great Harry Potter-style tale. I first looked at it and decided to read it because it was advertised as a "gay Harry Potter," and while it does have somewhat of that same feel, it's really a novel all its own. A school of magic, seemingly forbidden to our protagonist, is suddenly within his grasp. But what repercussions could come from this unexpected windfall?

Only one character is canonly LGBTQ+, at least through this book, but I think I just enjoyed the feel of reading a story, especially a fantasy story, that is LGBTQ+ friendly, even if the protagonist himself isn't (canonly) LGBTQ+ (yet). I still hold out hope for later books, lol.

Overall, just a really fun book, a great story, and an easy read.
