The artwork in this one was not as cool but I still enjoyed the story. The artwork is what I enjoy the most in these books and most of the art in this volume is more like you'd see in the regular comics that kids read.

Very cool. I love the artwork.

To be honest, when I first started this book I thought it was just a Harry Potter wannabe but it didn't take long to see how very different the story was. I am really glad it was different too. I actually loved it and especially love the creative mind of the author. I loved the idea of black unicorns driven by the dark Queen and shorehorses. All of it actually! I wanted to go there and be a student at the Halls of Ivy. The story is about Ivy who was an orphan who worked in the kitchen at one of the castles. The slurry fields around the castle blocked magic so she never knew she could do magic until she had to leave. A lot of amazing things began to happen immediately as she left that place and she received her invitation to the Halls of Ivy, school of magic. There she was finally able to make some friends and eventually, learn about herself and where she came from. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

Wow, I'm pleasantly surprised. I picked this book up because I liked the way it looked. I loved the small size and the pretty soft colors and watercolor designs on it. I didn't even read it for years after I bought it. I'm really not sure what made me decide to read it now but I'm glad I did. I started sticking those colorful flags to lines I wanted to go back to and now the books is full of a rainbow of them. This book is FULL of wisdom and it is just the type of thing I needed right now. I like keeping books like this on hand with those little flags to flip to when I'm feeling down or dealing with too much pain from my chronic health issues. Sometimes I need something like this to flip through to read just a line or two of something to keep me from sinking into deep depression. This book is not going anywhere. I usually pass books on after reading them but this one will go on my keeper shelf.

Everyone should read this book, especially young people, and if you think it's boring you missed the point all together. Read it again.
I love to collect quotes from books, little nuggets of wisdom. This book is one nugget.
I wish it was longer. It needs some details filled in.
