I First Read This Almost Ten Years Ago

I was in my first form of secondary school and the books in the library in the fiction section were meager. I found this and other installments of the series hidden away beneath a bookshelf. I’d sit on the floor in the back of the library to read it and then squeeze it back underneath there. The library didn’t have any other parts of the series or it was incomplete and back then social media wasn’t as big as it was now (I sound ancient but I’m in my early-twenties and in 2014 it wasn’t so easy to just go look up stuff) so I couldn’t find out more about it. I had a dream about this series some nights ago and couldn’t remember the name only to see it on the recently updated list today. I feel pretty happy and nostalgic and it helps that almost everyone else in the comments has the same/ a similar experience with it as I did.

They don’t make comics like this anymore (god I sound old but it’s true!)
