Book Review

The Graveyard Gift (Fern’s School for Wayward Fae, Book 1)
by Fern Forgettable

by Celeste Perry, Sep 2024

Just in time for Halloween, Piper C.J., writing as Fern Forgettable, has crafted the perfect read for children who are inclined towards creepy tales. They can spend the spooky season following Rosemary as she finds herself at Fern’s School for Wayward Fae. With no clue why she was taken there or why everyone seems so suspicious of her arrival, Rosemary is introduced to the world of the fae – but she’s only human, isn’t she?

Thrown into the middle of a Nowhere Realm with no explanation of how or why, Rosemary’s curiosity is all-consuming. But Rosemary is no stranger to feeling out of place: she’s lived with a dark secret for all her life.

Get ready to experience fairies as you’ve never known them, from banshees to djinn, and even kikimora. Set in a world of never-ending forests and boarding schools stuffed to the brim with magical secrets, The Graveyard Gift is impossible to put down. It’s for anyone looking for a touching story of found family and self-acceptance, paired with a heart-racing adventure and a healthy dose of the macabre. Perfect for fans of Wednesday, Amulet, or The Spiderwick Chronicles, aged 8+.
