Cute artwork. Fun little story about anthropomorphic fruits and veggies reacting to a vampire moving into town. Garlic, the lead, suffers from anxiety.

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Finished 9/24

Spent 3/4 thinking the book was about fencing only to find out it was a fantasy. Needed more from the fantasy element.

Jess (seejessread) | 296 comments Graveyard Shakes A Graphic Novel by Laura Terry

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Finished 9/26

Very cute art. Story featuring a pair of girls new to boarding school and trying to deal with not fitting in. Add a mad scientist with a franken-kid and a easily spooked ghost and you have an entertaining (although at some points confusing) story.

Jess (seejessread) | 296 comments Garlic and the Witch by Bree Paulsen

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Finished 10/8

Similar to it's predecessor, Garlic is dealing with anxiety. This time dealing with a long journey and potential life change she doesn’t feel ready for. Good story for kids
