The Marvellers by Dhonielle Clayton
5.0
13 out of 10, highly recommend to *everyone*.
Welcome to the future of magical schools. The Marvellers takes on difficult topics with ease. Clayton’s writing is accessible but also packs a punch when necessary. I particularly love that Ella has a lot of adults in her life who care! And are alive! I also love Ella herself for being earnest and smart and relatable. The kids are going to loooove this book. There’s magical talking animals! The school and cities in the SKY! Different houses that you don’t get sorted into until the end of your first year (I am looking forward to seeing more of them in book two)! Academy secrets everywhere! It is a fact in this world that different kinds of magic are still important and all valid and I adore it. Truly and sincerely cannot wait to read the rest of this series. Will be promoting this one quite a lot to the kids at work.
Thank you to NetGalley for a preview copy of the ebook in exchange for an honest review. I ended up purchasing the audiobook via www.libro.fm as well.
