The Altered History of Willow Sparks

(2) YA When miserable teen Willy has a chance to write her preferred reality into a magical book, she does. Willy's reinvention as cool, stylish "Willow" has unexpected consequences. At this graphic novel's heart is an examination of the often-volatile dynamics of high school friendships and social standing. In O'Connor's detailed, blue-toned grayscale art, the main characters' expressive faces and body language convey nuanced emotional arcs.
